Spring 2009 Curry’s Chronicle is in the Mail!

Now, I know that after my last post, some of you were a bit worried about why your issue hadn’t reached you yet. Fear not. As of today (2-25-09), the spring 2009 issue of C4OA’s Curry’s Chronicle is in the mail!

Here’s the thing: whenever I post a blog about the Chronicle being at the printers, that only means that we’re in the final stages of production, not that it’s getting mailed out that day. We still have to receive proof copies, make lots of corrections, and comb through every page of the journal before we give the printers the go-ahead to mail them out. Sometimes this can take a week, and sometimes it takes several weeks.

Keeping that in mind, our deadline for mailing out the spring edition of Curry’s Chronicle is March 1st, so don’t fret if we’re still in February and you haven’t received your copy—it’s on its way!

Thankfully, this issue of the journal is now in the hands of the U.S. Post Office (in Minnesota), and hopefully (fingers crossed), its carriers will deliver your dose of “CC” literature in a careful, speedy manner.

If you have questions or comments, or if your quarterly hasn’t reached you by April Fool’s Day, let us know by contacting me (Maya) at mariesgate@sbcglobal.net, or by mailing a note to me at 5032 S. Virginia St., Reno, NV 89502. Also, calls are welcome at (775) 322-4455.

I hope you enjoy this latest issue of Curry’s Chronicle, and that you have a very wonderful last-month-of-winter!

PS: If you just can't wait to sneak-a-peek at the upcoming issue, I have posted a list of the spring 2009 Curry's Chronicle articles in the Table of Contents section in the right-hand column. Scroll down, and don't feel bad for drooling!

Spring 2009 Curry's Chronicle is at the Printers!

My wonderful C4OAers,

Well, there may be some snow on the ground, but that isn’t stopping this club from launching off its next quarterly to the printer. Yes, that means that our little journal is working its way from mere digital files into the beautiful literary work of art known only as Curry’s Chronicle.

Behind the scenes, everyone at C4OA has been working diligently to make sure this Chronicle astounds anyone who picks it up. It’s jammed with a wide variety of interesting articles, letters to the editor, detailed pictures, and yes, even another famous word search puzzle. Although the contents are strictly top-secret at the moment, I can assure you that this season’s edition will not disappoint you.

I hope everyone in C4OA’s cyber-land is doing well, and is enjoying the end of the winter season. Do keep in mind that if you have not contributed an article or a letter to the editor, you should make the effort and become the “newest sensation” in the summer 2009 issue. Join in on the fun!

With great anticipation,

-Maya
