New Publication: OK Cupid Messages I Have Not Responded To



I have just finished a new publication, titled:  OK Cupid Messages I Have Not Responded To.  As the title suggests, these are real messages I received during my stint on the online dating website OK Cupid.

"These unanswered messages are here presented as a brief glimpse into the world of online dating.  This publication brags no ability to summarize the online dating experience, but instead exists to provide entertainment to its readers (though not at the expense of the message authors, whose identities remain anonymous)."

This publication was printed in an edition of 70 copies. Each copy is hand-numbered, stamped with the date of the edition's completion and bound by hand with bookbinding thread.  The covers were printed on vintage construction paper.  They are available now in my etsy shop and will be for sale at the Portland Zine Symposium next month.
