Launch! Party!

Posted in News on March 24, 2008 by wufniks


Heavens to Betsy!

On 16th April, 2008, Wufniks will be having a launch party.
You are invited.
You should come.
Seriously.
It will be nice.

It will be held in upstairs at Revolution on Oxford Rd, Manchester.
For those who don’t know: an internet map.

We’ll have more details in the coming weeks but so far we know that:

- We’re hoping to have some actual multi-dimensional people reading their work for your very delectations.
- Issue #1 & brand spanking new Issue #2 will both be available to purchase and thenceforth be read or given as a thoughtful gift or used to fan one’s self/next-of-kin/chilly enemies.
- There will be some exciting announcements made concerning the distant spectre that is Issue #4!

Anyway.
Tip-Ex out everything that you had in your diary for that day and come and say hello and let us love you and pat you on the back.

Further, further bribery:
Remember Stanley? Have more Stanley!

And even some Kurt.

Keep sending us things for Issue #3.

Don’t be squareniks,

Holy Hamstrings!

Happy St. Wufniks day,

Thanks to those who have already submitted to Issue #3.
Congratumalations!
You are champions and really rather marvelous the lot of you.
Of course, there is still plenty of time to send us bits, but it’s never too early

As a morbid incentive, we have posted five 100-word obituaries of misrepresented heroes from throughout history.
Would you Adam and Steve it? There is one each for the letters A, B, C, D and then E, in that order!
Look at that!

Ah!

OK,
Keep submitting,
All the best and all the rest,
As per always,

Issue #1 = Freshly Baked Bread

OH!
Holy Mackerels!
Did you know that Issue #1 has just come back from the printers?
It’s true!
Fresh and warm it is indeed.
So, get in touch with us if you’re interested in getting your hot paws on a copy.

Keep your eyes to this site to find out about the upcoming release party as well.

Issue #2 is hot on the tail of its predecessor and should be out later this month in physical form as well.
It’s brewing in its juices as we type.
Wufniks keeps you in the know.

Oh, Garfield Minus Garfield !!

Oh, Lemon Gas !!

Okay Dokay,
