We have a release date for the new issue of Whistling Shade, which will contain the first-ever “Theater Machine” column, written by yours truly. October 28 is the date to watch for. The WS website will be undated around then, and paper copies should appear in libraries, bookstores, and coffee shops around the Twin Cities in the following week or so.

Mark your calendars, good people of the Twin Cities. I have three pieces in the upcoming issue of Do It Green! Minnesota. Said guide will be released at the Green Gifts Fair, November 15, 2008, from 10:00 until 5:00 at the Midtown Global Market, Lake Street and 10th Avenue in Minneapolis.
