LEZ LETTERS silence isn't golden here! Raym Washington, jr: "I have decided to step from the ranks of the great, silent 75%. August issue arrived OK. T'would be better if the ink was blacker and the paper was heavier, don't you agree, Yngvi? S'funny.. I received LeZ on Friday, with account of the Denvention, and Saturday got VoM with another account. Incidently, in that August VoM I put in a plug for LeZ. Have you no appreciation, Tucker?? So LeZ was jilted, huh? Revenge is sweet. I guess your present policy is all right if there was just more material. More articles, say I, longer editorials, more LeZ Letters and Le-Ettes. "Romance of the Elements" deserves a place with the classics. If you ever get stuck for two pages of space-fillers just send out a mental clarion call for . . . Raym. (I cry because I must not laugh -- that's all, that's all.)" LeZ see: We chose the paper, our printer the ink. Perhaps he will read this and dab more on next time. The only way to cram more material in a fanzine this size is to make each article shorter. We try to hold everything to one or two pages. Exceptions, of course, get three. And don't wait to be asked to send material. You'll never get in print that way! LeZ welcomes anything humorous or featureable in a fan way, If it is up to "standard" ,,, typical of this fanzine .. it's welcome! Consider Al and Abby Lu Ashely and Jack Wiedenbeck, They have never been in print before ... and their first piece in LeZ rang the gong! Mac Chamberlin: "I have just finished my first two issues of LeZ and finite it -- swell! Swell to the tune of another subscription. Enclosed you will find fifty cents. I was quite impressed by the July cover, and the guy who stated that the L in Le Zombie isn't an L, is nosy. You follow me, I hope. (( not if you are nuts, we don't )) Your LeZ-Ettes are good stuff, very good stuff. Hey, it sounds like Charles Tanner doesn't go for Palmer's mags. What's the matter with them brother? -- or are you just kiddin'. It is now my intention to attend an sf-convention after reading about them for two years. I read your account of the Denvention with great interest. Only one point escapes me. What is Tremaine's Coment Award? What's it for? I enjoyed "Romance of the Elements" immensely. It was well done, chum. Also enjoyed Over King Smith co. advertisements. . . . " LeZ sez: The Tremaine thing was this: Editore Tremaine of Comet offered an award of $25 to the fan who overcame the greatest obstacles to reach the Denvention. However, because his magazine folded in the meantime (and the company wouldn't maintain responsibility), Tremaine was unable to appear, or award the money. At least, this is the version published in Fantasy Fiction Field Weekly, a fan news sheet published by Julius Unger at 1702 Dahill Road, Brooklyn. We accept it as true. LeZ-Ettes chapter 1: Mushroom chapter 2: Toadstool chapter 3: No fungus chapter 1: Cow chapter 2: Bluegrass chapter 3: Mooed Indigo chapter 1: Barsoom chapter 2: Bar-room chapter 3: Four moons chapter 1: Pong chapter 2: Pun chapter 3: Zombie
