if it was up to me -- it isn't -- literary is exactly the word to describe the ideal that should be strived for by anyone who's not writing just for fun. and i'm the first to defend the thousands who're writing just for fun, and i hate it when those people are denigrated for not living up to the standards of others. those people already know they don't want to go through the pressures of the process of being in a zine like this one.

i should bow out of this conversation now, my only place in this project is aesthetic anyway. css doesn't get mad if you sometimes call it html. :\
