[4.2] Question: Where can I get a copy of Angels and Visitations and the "Snow, Glass, Apples" chapbook?

The major comic distributors, Diamond, Cap City, Friendly Franks, etc., have all bought and continue to reorder copies of _Angels_. The easiest way, may be to have your local comic shop order a copy from their distributor. Currently, both Diamond's Star System and Cap City's Hyperlink feature the book and so shops doing business with either Cap City or Diamond should be able to get you a copy within a week if they regularly use either of these services.

If you're not in North America or don't have access to a helpful comic shop, you can buy a copy via mail order from the publisher, DreamHaven Books. Copies can be sent out overseas, but will take time if sent by surface mail and air mail will add considerably to the price of the book.

You can contact DreamHaven at (612) 379-0657 or write to:

DreamHaven Books
1309 4th Street SE
Minneapolis, MN 55414

e-mail: dreamhvn@winternet.com

If you have a local bookstore that will order books for you, you may wish to give them this information. If they ask, the ISBN number is 0-9630944-2-4.

A special limited edition of Angels is also available.

"Snow, Glass, Apples" is a chapbook (the short story equivalent of a comic book ashcan) also available from DreamHaven. The chapbook includes a cover by and interior illustration by Charles Vess. 10% of the sales of this chapbook go to support the Comic Book Legal Defense fund. At the present time, DreamHaven is the only distributor for this title. Cost is $10 postpaid.

[4.3] Question: Where can I get a copy of The Flash Girl's "The Return of Pansy Smith and Violet Jones" CD/Cassette?

"The Return of Pansy Smith and Violet Jones" is available on CD ($15) and Cassette ($10) from:

SteelDragon Press
P.O. Box 7253
Minneapolis, MN 55407

Add $2 S&H and if you live in a flat state (IA, IL, IN, KS, OH, MI, MN, NE, SD, WI, but strangely, not North Dakota) add the appropriate sales tax.

Disclaimer: I have no connection to SteelDragon. Honest.
