Down the Final Stretch

October 5, 2008

Issue 1 is shaping up, and we might even get it out on time!  The really cool thing is that we will have a Michael Knott painting for our cover.  Steve pulled that together – and it looks great (a preview is above).  All of the interviews are completed, final edits are happening, and the last touches are being put together.  If everything keeps sailing along, we should get this done on time.  Of course, that is usually when the bottom falls out on things… so I won’t count my chickens until they hatch and all.  But this is going to be a great issue, chock full of interesting stories and features.

Also tweaked the top image to fit the whole classic theme and all.  The full image will be used in the magazine – its a shot of a classic car that I saw at a junk yard when I was in an art class in college.  We would go out to these cool spots around town, take some pictures, and then go back and paint the pictures.

Decided to start a twitter account just to post quick updates about interesting sites or news bits I find here and there.  Check it out at http://twitter.com/downthelinezine and be our “follower.”  Sounds cultish, huh? My twitter feed is also displayed in a widget on the left if you don’t want to drink the Web2.0 kool-aid.

Interviews are coming along great – we have some great information and background from Joshua Lory of L.S. Underground. Its always interesting to look at interview answers and wonder if you want to print the whole thing as in because it is full of great information, or write an actual article using quotes.  I guess we can do both, huh?  No page limits… no need to make room for more ads… hmmmm…. something to ponder….

So far we are looking at an October 8th launch date, in order to be closer to the new release of the L.S. Underground album. That’s not set in stone yet, but is looking more possible every day.
