How the fanzine refused to die

Blogs are the cheapest, fastest and easiest way to get your music writing out there – but that hasn’t stopped a new generation of writers picking up the stapler and putting out a fanzine

Simon Reynolds over at The Guardian with some input from me.

    Curious… but what Reynolds is describing although he doesn’t mention it is also the way book publishing will go. Once a specific e-reader gets a clear lead in the field we’ll have books as cheap downloads like music and then limited edition expensive runs… in the cult area at least. I don’t think the £10 pod book has a particularly long shelf-life outside tomes that are sold to students… And what a nice guy Simon Reynolds continues to be… good to see him covering you….
