Dykes to Watch Out For

Any non-local DTWOF fans out there willing to be on the lookout for something for me?

Alison Bechdel has published a promotional hard-copy of The Daily Distress, the fictional newspaper from her comic, to promote her new book, The Essential Dykes to Watch Out For.

I figure it won't be too tricky for me to buy a copy of the book, but I would really like to get my hands on a copy of the promotional paper as well. I've asked her if she's willing to publish it as a PDF, but expect the publishers won't go for that. I expect our local market isn't big enough to get copies of The Daily Distress and I won't be in Toronto for a while (and who knows when Toronto will get copies anyway; might be a few weeks).

So- if you run across an extra copy: and you don't mind getting it to me, I'd be appreciative.

If you get a copy and can *scan* it for me, I'll be even more appreciative. :)
