Widdershins is supported solely through the advertising that appears in its pages. This has not been enough to pay for the paper, so we need a person willing to put in some time sending out information, making calls to potential advertisers and following up with current advertisers that need a reminder call. We can't pay you, but we will give free ads if you're willing and able to make a commitment. Prior sales experience helpful but not necessary. Please call Sylvana (206) 363-7896, press 1 and leave a message. Thank you!
We know it's not always easy, and sometimes it's impossible, to find Widdershins at the distribution points. Since so many of you have requested it - you may now subscribe to Widdershins and have it delivered by mail right to your door!
The paper will still be free at any of the distribution points, and you can still download the text version from the http: World Wide Web site, but now there is an option for those of you without computers and those who live in other parts of the country or the world.
That's right, for only $20 per year in the United States (prices higher elsewhere; see below for details) you can have each issue sent directly to you or to a friend, first class, as soon as it's published.
Send us a check or money order and the subscription form today, and get the next print issue mailed to you!
Prices:
Regular subscriptions:
United States: $20 per year (8 issues)
Mexico, Canada: $26 per year (8 issues)
Everywhere else: $30 per year (8 issues)
All prices in U.S. dollars only.
If you would like to further support Widdershins in its purpose, you may choose a contributing or supporting subscription. A list of contributing and supporting subscribers will be printed in each issue, unless you request your name not be printed. A contributing or supporting subscription makes a great gift for your coven members, high priest and priestess or family and friends.
Contributing subscriptions: $50 per year
Supporting subscriptions: $100 per year
Donations for any amount always gladly accepted!
A special thank you and big hugs go to Andy Paik for his seemingly never ending work on production, Jerry Kaufman for his valuable copyediting skills, Dedric for his hard work maintaining the Widdershins World Wide Web page, and to Bonnie for the huge transcription job for this issue and for her subscription help and to all of the other typists, copy editors, proofreaders, and delivery people, Sharma, Wade, Candace, and Harold!
And as always Miriam Harline for her valuable support and aide.
Thank you all so much - without you, the paper wouldn't exist! Goddess bless you all always! Love to all, Sylvana.
Widdershins' distribution is one of the most important jobs we do, and we still need help.
If you have a few spare hours a couple of times during the six-week period between issues, and a car, you can distribute to our pagan-friendly businesses. Distribution is a fun way to participate; you get to go to stores you might not normally visit and check out the pagan community and meet cool people. The stores are great, and people are delighted to see with you each new issue.
You also get to hang out with a bunch of cool people who would appreciate you tremendously, as would a lot of other people who would be able to see the paper much sooner. It also would be great for your karma!
We need help in all areas, especially downtown Seattle, Queen Anne, south Seattle, Renton, Kent, Federal Way, Tacoma, Olympia, Vancouver and Portland, Oregon.
If you live farther north than Everett, we are also looking for distribution points in Monroe, Woodinville, Bellingham, and for Victoria and Vancouver, B.C., Canada. If you know of a place that would like to carry Widdershins, or want to deliver, please call Sylvana at (206) 363-7896.
You can become a professional newspaperperson in a few easy steps - and become famous (or infamous) worldwide!
Widdershins continues to look for desktop publishing experts, artists, writers, typists, office organizers, copy editors and proofreaders - in short, workers for just about every task associated with the paper. We're having so much fun, we've got to share it! Perks include semi-professional training and deep appreciation. Possession of your own personal computer, knowledge of Microsoft Word and/or Pagemaker for Windows are pluses but not requirements.
For more information, call (206) 363-7896 and ask for Sylvana.
We have been producing Widdershins with a minimum of old equipment, and we could use an upgrade; we really need several things. So we are asking the gods, goddesses and whoever else might be listening: If anyone is upgrading their machines or would like to support the paper by donating any of the following IBM-compatible equipment - 72 pin SIMM RAM, a full page scanner, a printer that prints 11-by-17-inch paper, a 17-inch full-page tilt monitor, or even a whole new computer with a processor faster than a 66 megahertz 486 - we'd be thrilled to accept it. It would certainly make our lives easier if we had more modern equipment to work with. Plus, the paper would get produced earlier! We also would be happy to accept cash donations toward any of the above.
Thank you and blessings to all, the Widdershins staff.
