It's summer time! Well, just about ...
I have been working hard on uploading our new zines to Sweet Candy's catalog as well as writing descriptions for a few zines that have been uploaded already. I still have plenty more to do but I am excited about what I have accomplished so far. Here is a quick list of what is new & updated on the website. Please visit the site to read the descriptions:

Aubade #3
Cognitive Chaos
Subgroup Cursive
* re-stocked * functionally ill
Frank, Phil, and Joe comic
Mr. Destructo and Destructo Jr. comic
She's So very ... 12

I have also added a dozen one inch buttons to the website as well.

I am thrilled to announce that Sweet Candy turns 5 years old this weekend, woohoo! I can't believe how the time has passed. I love running Sweet Candy Distro and to think we have been chugging along for five years is really a wonderful feeling. I have made a special 1” button to celebrate our birthday and have added them to goodie bags that will go out with EVERY order placed this month!

I will also be hosting Sweet Candy Radio's 3rd episode tomorrow evening at 8pm! I will have Nicci M. of Fat Girl zine (and many other awesome zines) on as my special guest. Listen in live or click on the link to download it at a later date: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Sweet-Candy-Distro

You can always click on the 'Remind Me' button for our upcoming episode to receive an e-mail reminder about an hour prior to the show going live. Feel free to check out our past episodes but keep in mind that each episode is recorded live and without editing so please be cautious when listening to them at work or at home with young children; some topics contain mature content.

Take care everyone, thanks as always for reading.

Dear friends,

I am really excited because today Sweet Candy will be hosting its first radio talk show! The mission behind this project is for Sweet Candy Distro to bring together our writers & readers. On each episode I will have a special guest on who has either been a part of Sweet Candy Distro in the past or presently ... we'll have fun discussions, zine readings, announcements on upcoming projects and updates regarding the distro!

Our first show is Saturday, May 16th at 2pm! The url to the
show is here: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Sweet-Candy-Distro

Listen in while I chit chat with Jennifer Darling (Gretchen zine)
about zines, sharing our zines in our small towns & more!!

 Hello friends,

These blue skies are teasing me. They are making me think Spring is almost here, could it be true? Can you tell I am so over winter?

I have been receiving some wonderful zines for distro consideration and I am working hard to get through the stack and contact everyone. Please be patient if you have sent me a zine. I don't rush through when reading them so it takes some time.

I have added new one inch buttons to the distro catalog as well as bring back some favorites like our crocheted cupcake pins and tooth fairy pillows by Megumi. I have lots more to get on the website and will do my best to have a large update for you all in March!

Some great zine titles that we will be stocking as soon as they arrive in our po box are:

Potentially Heartwrenching Distractions ...
Greenwoman Zine #3
Regeneration #6


Take care,
Sage~

I have been working daily on uploading all of our new zines to Sweet Candy’s new website and I have also begun to upload our handmade items too! I still have some more items to post on the website but I am going to take a break so I can do a major inventory … in the meantime I am going to have a SALE to celebrate the website ~

All orders $20 and above will receive $5 worth of FREE zines and/or 1” pins (that is $20 before the shipping cost)

All orders $10 and above will receive $2 worth of FREE zines or 1“ pins (that is $20 before the shipping cost)

If you are paying through Pay Pal then you can list the free zines you would like in either the note section when you checkout or send it over to me in an e-mail.

Our international friends are welcome to enjoy this sale. The sale begins now and ends on January 31, 2009.

Hi friends!

I am super excited to add a blog to Sweet Candy. This will give me a chance to update you all with new items that arrive at the distro, when we travel and other fun stuff! I'll write more soon but I have to get back to updating the website.

Goodnight xoxo
