Technically this has been true since 2005, but you can now do it in considerably less steps. There’s now a paypal store on this website right here.

I have a table on Saturday at 215 Festival’s Lovingly Bound art book event. This happens at the Latvian Society, at 531 N. 2nd St., from 11am-6pm.

On top of the normal leftovers from old times, I’m going to have the long-awaited second edition of my fake newspaper There is No Such Thing as News, screenprinted Darcone Triangle books (care of the truly excellent Mark Price), and ten copies of the all-pages-unique art book project I’ve been working on for the last two weeks. Each one of those is a folder that contains five paintings on vellum and an accompanying text. I’ll post pics of all three next Tuesday.

If you’re interested in getting any of these, Darcone Triangle is $5, the art books are $50, and the newspaper, normally $1, is free with either. Just send me an email – tom//dogchirp.com. Thanks!

I put out a new zine called Test Patterns. It’s 52 pages of drawings, junk and dreams. You can buy it from me in person for 3.50 or from Jacob at HBML, Quimby’s in Chicago or the Marvelous Record and Comics store in West Fuck for 4.50. I will mail it to you for 5 if you live in Amerikkka or 6 if you live in the outlands. All of those numbers are in dollars. Email me about it or leave a comment for me or whatever.

And now on to the normal crawl, L.I.F.E. on a pixel, life on a bristle, life on a sheet: things I did, thought and ate, January 6th, year of our wonder and sorrow 2008.
