QN/National Capital is beginning work on the first issue of "State
of the Queer Nation," to be mailed to folks on our current mailing list.
There's been much talk about QN collapsing, and we're here to say
that there is still room for direct action groups like QN, and there's
still lots of hatred and bigotry which stands in the way for our
ultimate liberation.

I'm seeking your inputs for this first issue.  Do you have a story about
your community (irrespective of whether you have a QN chapter) that
might be of interest to Queer Nationals across the nation?  If so,
please take a moment to drop the article to me via the net.  I'll have
a PO box set up in the next few days, so if you've got a hardcopy
of something and you don't feel like typing it in, you'll be able
to make submissions via snail mail soon.

Currently, I'm investigating whether we'll be able to offer this
publication electronically.  I'll let you know.  If you're interested
in getting a subscription to this publication, please drop me a line.
Subscription fees will only be levied for postage and reproduction
costs - I'm estimating fifty cents per issue.

I need your help if this project is to be a success.  This publication
will be by us and for us.
