NEXT CLUB MEETING SCHEDULED FOR SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 8, EXCLUSIVELY ON ZOOM!

MonSFFA’s next meeting, an “online-only” event, is scheduled to take place exclusively on ZOOM Saturday, February 8, from 1:00PM to 5:00PM! Join our ZOOM-chat and take part in the meeting from the warmth and comfort of home!

On the Agenda:

Romance? Western? Mystery? Horror? Which genres mix well with SF&F? We’ll discuss!

An indispensable necessity for life as we know it, we offer a presentation on water in SF&F!

Corner nook, basement workshop, kitchen table? Where in your home is located your hobby space? Snap a few photos of your hobby work station to share with the group, and tell us all about your genre-flavoured hobbies!

plus more…

So mark Saturday, February 8 in your calendars, and we’ll see you then…

Please note that we will return to our downtown meeting hall at Le Nouvel Hotel beginning in March, as winter, hopefully, begins to recede!

Lots of zines to share!

I took an extended break from web duties over the holidays, so lots of zines to catch up.

TZD60 From Guy Lillian who says,” It’s very small, it’s very late, it’s most confused and incomplete … but it’s here. The usual apologies, promises, and request for zines …”

CCDec2024-v01 From Leybl in Israel, still in war mode, sadly.

Kerosene papers from Nic, who says,”Well, “gift” is dubious, but from the recent discovery of The Kerosene Papers document, a pdf has been acquired and is attached for, if not your delectation, then – er – something else…

TH 82r Also from Nic:

“For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
And next year’s words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.”

ObdurateEye47 and SHOOTCUFFS13 from Garth

Incompleat2024 from NIc, news of Corflu

Yo & that!
Yes, it’s once again time to open voting for the 2025 FAAn Awards (for work first published in 2024), fanzine fandom’s only dedicated honors.
Attached you will find The Incompleat Register 2024 voters’ guide for this year’s awards. To repeat some of the salient points within (but please also read the voting procedure):
Closing date for votes to be received is midnight Pacific time, March 29 2025.
The Incompleat Register is NOT intended to define who or what you can or cannot vote for (The listings define the proper categorization of fanzines from 2024 known to the Administrator, who cannot possibly be aware of everything. Ballots are accepted in good faith)
 
You do NOT have to use the specific form provided (A simple list will do)
You do NOT have to be a member of Corflu or anything else (Voting is open to anyone with an interest in fanzines. There is no other requirement or fee)
The results will be announced at the Corflu 42 banquet on April 13 2025 and disseminated widely thereafter.
As always, we encourage other faneds and purveyors of fannish news to publicize the awards and encourage voting from their own readers. TIR will also be available on the Corflu and efanzines websites and in various online groups shortly.
