BOOKCELLAR NOTES (5/12/03 MON):
---Terribly difficult to get me to stay down in the cellar on this picture-perfect day. Behind on laundry for clothesline, the lawn needing to be mowed, Sunday NY TIMES in mail, etc.

---Another book here now:
Bishop, Michael BRIGHTEN TO INCANDESCENCE: 17 Stories, Golden Gryphon '03, 1st edn, (Golden Gryphon Book #26; Lucius Shepard intro), new in dj 24.95

---And:
CRAWDADDY new #28, 5/03, (rock and roll; last issue of new series), new 4.00
---Too bad to see Paul Williams forced to fold Crawdaddy (link shows contents of Issue 27 and earlier--most of which I still have in stock if you want them from me [30% discount to members of discount plan]). I remember CRAWDADDY in its initial incarnation. I think I remember a column by Paul Krassner and Paul Williams’ early promoting of Philip K. Dick. This was probably something that helped herd me back into reading SF after I may have strayed. For some real nostalgia I should spring for the Archival issues from 1966-1968 that are available--and help Paul with the debt which is forcing him to take a real job (writing the catalog for a music museum).

---Still no response from Subterranean. I will now begin letting customers know that they will have to seek elsewhere than through me for their books.
