New beginnings

The fourth and final print issue of IMUR is now available. E-mail us if you’d like to get your hands on a copy. We’ve finally decided to stop deluding ourselves and admit we live in a digital age and print zines are superfluous (regardless of how much we might love them). We are, however, planning on continuing the blog, so stay tuned for stuff from the fourth issue, as well as new stuff…

The final countdown

Trying to get enough submissions to put a final paper issue together.

We’re looking for stuff on being a minority in hardcore/punk, stuff on comic books, stuff on hope/new beginnings – but if you have something that has nothing to do with any of these we’ll consider that, too.

Thanks,

Lisa/IMUR

Will you miss me when I’m gone?

I know I promised more posts and I know the survey idea was lame, but hey, it was worth a shot. I really would like the zine to have an online presence, but so far this doesn’t seem to be working, so it’s back to the drawing board.

Since I’m participating in my own version of the annual Thing-a-Day challenge I can promise you that I won’t be making any more lame postings to this blog for a while (at least until the end of February). I will however be working on finding some great articles, art, etc. for the next issue and on the layout, so that hopefully it’ll be ready by the first week of March. So, if you’re itching to write something for us or you’d like to send us some art – drop me a line at imur.fanzine, a gmail address.

Some Questions for our dear readers

Ok, so maybe it’s just the usual mid-winter depression talking here – but does anyone actually read IMUR the blog or does pretty much everyone who stumbles upon here find themselves here by accident? Do you buy the paper version? I know the paper zine itself has a handful of readers, so I’m just wondering if keeping up the blog makes any sense. I’m also wondering if any of you have purchased a copy of the zine from Quimby’s or Chicago Comix (if not we may be pulling them from these stores)– or if you all just get them from me and Brian or Andrew’s distro. Finally, would you rather the zine be an online thing or do you like the print version? Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,
Lisa/IMUR

New Years Resolution

Sorry about the lack of posts on here as of late. Brian and I moved to a new place in December and our lives have been kind of insane! Things are finally settling down though and we’ve made a resolution to post here more often this year.

We wish you all health and happiness in 2009!

3rd Issue

Unless something catastrophic happens the third issue should be out by the end of November. We were originally aiming for the middle of the month but obviously that’s not happening. Due to a dearth of submissions, we’ll also be shortening the next issue (boo), which means it will be cheaper for you folks (yay). However, if this trend continues we’ll probably be ceasing production all together – so SEND US YOUR STUFF!

All apologies…

Due to more pressing matters (i.e. the editing of a certain book) the production of the second print issue of IMUR has been postponed until early August (or so we hope). In the meantime, we will post some articles from the first issue for those who were unable to get a copy, as well as a few new articles from the forthcoming issue.

Thanks for your understanding and happy reading!

Reminder

There are only two weeks left to submit your writing, art or photographs to us for the summer issue, which will be out in mid-July.

Hope you’re all enjoying the lovely weather!
