My friend, writer Kris Dikeman, introduced me to the world of zines more than half a decade ago.  Among them was Electric Velocipede. It was one of the inspirations for Sybil’s Garage.  John Klima, Electric Velocipede creator and family man, has run into a little financial trouble with the birth of his second child.  John says:

I feel very awkward to ask for help when there are so many people who also need help. It’s not easy for me to put this out there for the world.

I have to say this to John: don’t feel awkward.  Your magazine has given me and thousands of others many hours of enjoyment, and the least we can do it pay it back somehow.  If you’d like to help John, you can purchase items from his website.  He’s also running a special on chapbooks.

If you can, please support EV.  Read what John has to say here.
