Happy March, faithful ones. We’re gearing up for our April Fools’ Day reading at Café 316, so check out the ad in this issue for details. Speaking of this issue, we’re proud to present local writer Ted Gargiulo’s “Bedlam in Carmel,” the true story of an author’s first book signing/reading, which took place at the legendary Thunderbird Bookstore. (The Thunderbird closed down after Ted’s reading, although he claims not to have been the reason.) We also feature newcomer Lum Franco’s “Future Episode,” which is sure to strike a chord with many a writer; a Mary Tompsett double feature; and an A-to-Z list of all the things that could possibly kill you, courtesy of Jason Offutt (thanks a lot). You’ll also find an ad by the makers of Stuffacil (“It’s TODAY’S medium-sized purple pill”), an Irish joke or two, and a picture of Lily the Frog. Because we’re NOT just cat people here. Really.
