ACKERMAN ACKQUIESCES 19 June 47 Dear Editor Mac, I see by the forthcoming issue of Rider's Di-jest that you are contemplating publication of a new fanzine. You will, no bout, be grateful for a piece of top material, so I am sending you the roof off my house. No, secretary, scratch that out; put: and I am happy to be able to offer you THE MUTE QUESTION a bran new cereal of amazing conflict, by the leading author of A'sounding Sorties of Super-Sonics. First North of California Rights are offered as your usual worried rate. Yours very truly, (signed) Forrest J. Ackeman ((Thanks for them korned woids, 40. You will find your above mentioned autobiography on page 11 under Fantastic Shorts.)) BURBEE BURPS 24 June 1947 MADAM: I am enclosing THE DEVIL'S DOUBLE, by Landis Everson. This story has not. to my knowledge, been published. It was something that Merlin Brown ran off for FANSLANTS (now defunct) in 1944 sometime. He ran it off, and in typical Brown fashion, decided to reject it. He gave me a pile of the run off shoots and I am now passing it on to you. ((What does that make me?)) I was digging through my stuff the other night and found a two-thirds written story that I'd begun back in '43 for ACOLYTE. It might fit with your mag pretty well, since the protagonist is a necromancer. It's a fiction, of course. You care for fiction? If you hate fan fiction, (all of which stinks) I will forget about it. And by God, if you don't use it, I'll publish it in SHANGRI L'AFFAIRES, the Rejected Fan's Fanzine.....burb ((Merci bien a vous, aussi, Le Burbee. I am looking forward to featuring your tale in the next issue. Thanks, too, for submitting Lucifer's Likeness included herein under Freeshorts.)) PAGE 19
