I d like to note a few corrections on several mistakes made in the course of preparing last month s release With the hectic holidays and bustle of new year celebrations it s easy to slip here and there Such as on our information file the dividing bar read Newsletter #19 rather than Newsletter #20 Also a couple typing errors on my part were made Finally one sauce description read AWE Promotional instead of AWE Lettering Although it may seem unnecessary to mention such blemishes a professional-looking pack is something we struggle for Again we ve reached the end of another month and another newsletter If you d like to provide the group with feedback I ll most likely be opening a new discussion base on Acheron where you can post your comments Thanks for reading and enjoy the pack Dissonance Council - AWE Lettering - - -- -- - - - Designed By The Night Angel and Phony Eye - - - - - -- - - -
