Bike Messenger Stories - back from the dead

Hey folks,Even though the plans for a zine/anthology of Bike Messenger Stories got put on hold for a while, it hasn't slipped my mind and and I'm reviving the project. So... are any of you still interested in contributing? Looking for writing by former & current couriers, with the topic at least somewhat tangential to the job. Tentative deadline for submissions is March 1.  At the moment, I've got 2 short stories and 1 poem.My general idea is a self published print on demand type thing.  …See More

Bike Messenger Stories - a book

Posted on February 24, 2011 at 10:00pm 7 Comments

 

I was thinking about putting together an anthology, by and for couriers and thought I'd float the idea here and see if there is any interest...

 

Youtube and Vimeo are full of stuff theses day but theres only 2 bike messenger books I know of...

Maybe its time for another one.  It would be (relatively) easy to self publish on lulu.com

 

Any thoughts?
