[Edit: Sold. Check out all the other back issues and books at https://bl.ag/shop.]

I'm down to my last 'BLAG Back Issues Bundle' which contains issues, 03, 05, 06, and 07, the Letterheads special. for £80 with shipping to anywhere in the world included:

Issue 05 (https://bl.ag/05) is the one that's down to a single issue, so once this is gone, it's gone and I'll probably do another bundle with the other three which can all be bought individually.

One of the main BLAG 08 (https://bl.ag/08) features examines the changes in Hong Kong’s renowned signscape through the eyes of Henry Steiner, nearly 60 years after his 1966 essay on the subject.

The piece was written by Billy Potts (https://www.handsomeco.com) and his contributor copies arrived in Hong Kong this week. Here's Henry checking it out for the first time, and Billy wrote to me to say:

"Henry says, 'That's pretty good. Nice.' That's about the highest praise you could get from Henry and you* got it."

*Should be 'we', but I'm honoured either way!

Following a recent stock take, I’m discounting all back issues in the BLAG shop to clear the few remaining copies of BLAG 03 and BLAG 05.

Once they’re gone, they’re gone, just like issues 01*, 02 and 04.

*BLAG 01 is now free for all to view on the dedicated back issues page, where paid members can also access digital copies of issues 02–06: https://bl.ag/blag-better-letters-magazine-back-issues/.

Hej ludzie, czy Plume spadło z rowerka?

Pomyślałam, żeby przenieść bloga w googlowego Bloggera na jakąś fajniejszą platformę zanim ogarnę swój serwer czy coś. Szklana kula zaproponowała Plume, ale Bad Gateway.

W poleceniach miałam też write.as, ale strona też rzuca błędami...

Polecicie coś?
