I have some fanzines to share a bit of fanzine news.
First, these zines arrived in my mailbox while I was re-installing Windows, all my programmes, etc. Time to catch up on fan reading!

This was posted on File 770, for the benefit of members of the Dublin World Con who will be nominating/voting for the Hugos.
It caught my eye because of course Lloyd Penney is well know to Montreal area fans and writes LoCs regularly for WARP.
Lloyd Penney Lends a Hand
By John Hertz: Trying to catch up with your fanzine reading, for Hugo Awards nomination or otherwise?
Lloyd Penney, who sees lots of fanzines and sends letters of comment widely, made a chart of fanzines he saw and locced (as we sometimes say) in 2018, and sent it to the 2019 administrator of the Fannish Activity Achievement (FAAn) Awards. You can see it at p. 3 of this year’s Instructions, which you can find here (PDF). Many fanzines he notes are available electronically. The FAAn Awards are managed (if that word may be used) by the annual fanziners’ convention Corflu; the Instructions have various reference-jokes and like that.
