<p>OK &#8211; I know I said that the magazine would be released midday but I wasn&#8217;t sure how long it would take for  things to &#8216;go live&#8217; but for early birds you can nip along now. Just  please don&#8217;t order the print version until I&#8217;ve approved it (I&#8217;ll remove  the message on lulu and let you know on here &#8211; I&#8217;ve ordered the proof  copies today so hopefully won&#8217;t be too long).</p>
<p>And as a bonus secret surprise the Slingink Shorts 2010 Anthology  &#8211;  Anti-clockwise named after Nina Simon&#8217;s winning entry has been released  too (same applies for print copies).</p>
