Well, it's finally hit home, the SHITTY economy is making it hard to generate enough money to keep putting out FREE printed issues of SAUCE skateboard zine. My wages and hours have been drastically cut at the printshop forcing me to "Reinvest" my life to learn a new trade that I can once again make the BIG Bucks so I can dump it all into the mag. This is not a statement implying that we are done making "Printed Issues" but rather an update on our status since a lot of you are itching for a new issue (as well as myself). I'm toying with a couple new SAUCE printing ideas such as a "Semi Annual SAUCE skateboard book" or the possibly reverting back to BLACK and WHITE (though thats a hard one to deal with getting away from full color print and all) So for now, I'm working with new design / layout ideas for this SAUCE Blogspot aka the "SAUCE skateboard On-Line zine" making this a nice place to publish our skate news, material, and photographs about whats going on in the world of Shred! Just a temporary fix or substitute for the printed version. The good thing is that we can now have the WHOLE world reading and shredding with us in cyber space. So please put us in your BOOKMARKS and stop by regularly to check in and we are also keeping the SAUCE Store going to help generate money for future printed material as well as to help with gas for trips, money for crete, and keeping our camera equipment and computers up to date and in good working order so we may provide you with some "Daily Shred" to go along with your morning coffee.
I'm not thrilled at all about not having a new printed issue (at the present time) but at least we can still keep moving forward with the SAUCE project via cyber space until enough loot is earned to print the next issue or book. At any rate, please comment with any ideas, concerns, and places that may want to cut us a serious deal on printing. Now get out there and SHRED!
SAUCE Por Vida!!!!
