With just over two weeks to go, I have little news of any activity/contributions for MQ. I believe the Purple Gooroo has some stuff, and perhaps Fly (as usual!) but as ever I'd like to point out (sigh, boring) that someone has to write the damned thing!
A lot of my time/energy/focus goes into the Only Maybe blog (I might say something similar for Bobby - although he sems prolific in all directions) - which I find easier to work with (no specific deadlines) but the cycle of the year, from solstices to equinoxes rolls on relentlessly - and now March 21st looms...
(oh dear, 'relentless' and 'looms' - a bit glum this morning I guess!)
Anyway - now's your chance to publish art, poems, written pieces, rants, reviews, summaries of courses, and just about anything that you think might amuse or enlighten fellow Maybes. I'll try to find something suitable of my own, but can't promise anything.
Maybe I could cheat and do a 'best of' from the blog, as we approach our 10 thousandth reader?

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Wed, March 5, 2008 - 1:38 PMDoes anybody feel very strongly that the MQ must continue? Because personally I would like to take the time I usually put into MQ and go all out on the Only Maybe blog.
and I feel as though if even just a few others would join in w/ content and/or comments, we could probably put on one hell of a show.
The MQ really isn't that fun for me, I usually end up losing 2 nights of sleep on rushed work that I don't know if anyone is even reading!! Hear me when I say that I need SLACK!!
Hell, most all of the MQ regulars already have OM access, and anyone that doesn't can easily get it.
[url]www.maybelogic.blogspot.com/[/url]
well, anyway, that's by way of what I think. -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Wed, March 5, 2008 - 4:41 PMHmmm.
I don't know about the MQ. Damned thing has always intimidated me.
And I haven't even really allowed myself to look at OM (see above).
Sorry 'bout that. I have "group issues". My dad raised me with the mantra, "I would never belong to a group that would have someone like me as a member." Fucked me up real good. Made me all reactionary and shit.
But seeing as how I've already tricked myself into becoming a Maybe I suppose I could shuffle on over to OM and check things out, contribute an annoying comment here and/or there.
Maybe work my way up to content one of these days.
(And you can put a sock in it, Eva! Me and my big mouth... "If ya wanna learn fast...")
As far as MQ is concerned, I didn't put in work, so my opinion means jack. And I definitely don't feel ready to write anything for it. Couple months, probably... now, no.
(Shush! I get it, dammit!)
But if the workers need slack, I say let them have slack! -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Wed, March 5, 2008 - 10:45 PMToday in psychology class I learned that I "am" a perfectionist, but I really already knew that.
I do a lot of writing these days but a lot of it I read and hear that South Park episode where Towlie's trying to get a book published - who's gonna be interested in my stoney memoirs? LOL
I've only contributed twice to the MQ and really, both would work on the OM and it also gives an opportunity for feedback and collaboration with maybebuddies, unlike the feel of the MQ. So I shall go venture over to the OM right now and see what Bogus and Bobby have been up to.
By the way, I know a lot of people have contributed over the years, but I just wanted to say thanks to Bogus, Bobby, and Fly for keeping both the OM and MQ ships afloat, sometimes almost all by yourselves, for almost 3 years.
And hell it's called the MAYBE quarterly. How's bout we publish when we feel the need to, rather than according to some schedule? -

Wed, March 5, 2008 - 10:48 PMheh.
P.S. that part about being a perfectionist was gonna include another sentence or two to use that perfectionism as an excuse for why I haven't contributed jack to hardly anything over the years but I forgot. -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Thu, March 6, 2008 - 3:23 PMWell, I side with Bobby on this.
I find it really easy to contribute to OM - as I can draft, publish, re-edit, take down, put up, and tweak endlessly. We can easily change the template and appearance, if people don't like the 'dark' look. We could even start a Maybe Quarterly blog, which makes it so much easier to edit, and contribute, etc. Or a WordPress website, or a Googlepages, or whatever...
The Maybe Quarterly emerged under Kentroversy's guidance (who wanted it four times a year, on the magickal model) and I love what it has done, but always find it stressful to chase a deadline. And note that Kent went on to run a successful blog!
I feel much more like Douglas Adams:
"I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by. "
So we just have to ask Admin, I guess, because they may like it as an aspect of the MLA - but, if so, I think they perhaps have to take on some kind of editorial role (?)
[Just another tired anarchist, who doesn't really care if another edition appears, or if it appears on a ritualistic date, or whatever. Why don't we publish when we have something to say? As my friend Tony Allen used to say "how can you trust a newspaper which always has the same number of pages?" They make up enough news to fit - just as OW told us in CityZen Kane.] -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Fri, March 7, 2008 - 11:16 AMWell, I've got some new E-Choice exercises I scribbled down somewhere that I could turn into a part 2 for the MQ - though I think maybe I should kick myself in the ass and start a column on the OM blog. It just intimidates me! You guys write such good stuff, so i don't wanna come along and go, hey, here's some silly shit from me! But I think I should just get over that and get to the blog, and I'm gonna start with an Open Letter to Ben Mack that I wrote last night. :)
I have a poem thingy I wrote during Astrologik that I might include too, after a peer review (Eva, check your mailbox tomorrow!). -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Fri, March 7, 2008 - 3:36 PMHi Min!
I wouldn't worry about OM so much.
First of all - you can write in Draft, and ask people to check it out, if you want. Or just wait until you feel satisfied with it before publishing.
You can Post, regret it and save it back to Draft, or simply Delete. I take down temporary messages once they did their thing.
We even have a sandpit blog called Only Joking, if you want to really mess about with little fear of 'breaking' anything.
But MQ#14 looks as though it may come together.
I just had an email from the mighty Fergus - sending me a piece to pass on to Admin - and he's joined this group, too!
We are talking about diversifying, as well, because blogs do feel awfully linear. I have started experimenting with GooglePages (from their beta testing Labs) which lets you create webpages with as much ease as blogging. As a sample, I have just started migrating all my writing stuff there, because my old website feels so old-fashioned and clunky (made over the last seven years, as I learned stuff, it still uses a FrontPage 2000 template!)
I am also trying out WordPress webpages - partly to go with the e-Tutor course I just started (maybe the first step to returning to freelance).
At the risk of appearing to act like Ben Mack (in terms of self-promotion, although he seems a pretty cool guy when you get to 'know' him) here's just a few of my experiments (to give you an idea of what's possible with relatively little skill or talent):
toby.philpott.googlepages.com/bob...ales
bogusmagus.wordpress.com/
tobyph.wordpress.com/
jabbahutt.googlepages.com/home
It's real fun!
Ahem - anyway - I figure we started on Wikis, we have a magazine, we have a long-standing blog - I can't see any reason why we shouldn't make a website, so people can have their own pages, and stuff - to get away from that linear thing (which happens in Tribe, too).
-
-
This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.
Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Fri, March 7, 2008 - 5:19 PMTo demonstrate (so much better than mere chatter) I have just gone off and started an Only Maybe website.
OM already had a Google account to run a blog, so here's a Google PageCreator sample of a Home Page:
onlymaybe.googlepages.com/home
and just one user's page (mine) linked to it - although everyone could have one (or several) of their own...
onlymaybe.googlepages.com/bogusmagus
Really quick to do...even if I have had a bit of practice.
Whaddya think? Shall we carry on with the blog, but have a website, too? -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Sat, March 8, 2008 - 1:27 AMYES! I LOVE BEING MODERATOR!!! I can fix my fuckups.
Totally digging the website, Bogus. Great idea. It's amazing how easy one can get a presence on the net these days - woe to all those graphic designers that paid big bux to learn how to do it (like my sweetie).
I've been wanting to work on some sequential stuff and blog formats just bother me for that. But I'm just too lazy to figure out how to do it myself, so thanks for doing all the footwork, as usual. It's quite an impressive new idea, and one I find much more inspiring than a quarterly 'zine... the constant updating will mean there's always something new. -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Sat, March 8, 2008 - 1:25 PMIf you decide what avatar name you want I can easily make a page up for you - into which you just pour your own content.
You can paste in words, tweak fonts, change the color and size of text, etc. You can decide to have 1,2,3 columns. If you upload pictures you can insert them, and then customize the size, etc. It seems pretty easy to add internal links (to other pages in the website) and external ones (to other places on the web). You can even make a clone copy of your page to mess around in, without losing any gains you have put into the main one.
I still find GooglePages a little bit rigid (but they are still working on it). I suspect that I can tweak it a bit more at the HTML level, but I didn't want anyone to have to worry about that sort of thing if they don't find it interesting.
I quite like the moody grey template, but I am open to persuasion...I have tended to choose different styles for the various sites I have built, but once you've decided on a template it is usually best to stick to it - even though the content may reshape itself easily enough to any new template, you sometimes have to tweak again.
They all form experiments to me. My partner wants me to help set up a Mac website for her photos (she mistakenly thinks of me as a computer whizz). Unfortunately she wants a classy act, but doesn't want to learn the basics...(sigh) I may suggest she pay a designer / developer.
I think these 'readymade' sites create a great doorway into web presence (freelances need to take this stuff on board, in my opinion).
I started on the web in 1999 with a one page cv / resume which just grew into a website... and recently put one up again, when applying for this course to learn how to be an e-tutor.
It just seems more stylish than attaching a Word file to an email. toby.ph.googlepages.com/home -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Sat, March 8, 2008 - 1:43 PMJust to be clear (never trust a man with the initials BM!) I am putting these links here not to try to find work - but to demonstrate how different the look can be (my cv/resume is done with exactly the same GooglePages gizmo as the Only Maybe website - I just wanted a different look - chose a different template).
You can see we could easily simulate something like the MQ, if we didn't want the dark and brooding look... -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Sun, March 9, 2008 - 9:14 AMI've only ever made one small contribution (to JPs Chaos Magick piece), but I've flipped through every issue. I've always admired the work all the contributors have put into it, but the blog seems like a much more modern, spontaneous way to go. Quarterly magazines remind me of printing presses and other archaic technologies.

You can actually, blogger has supported every embed code I've yet tried.

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Sun, March 9, 2008 - 9:22 PMOh yah.
I was more asking if the MQ was still on (What's the verdict? And where do I put it?), and about how to go about sending it in. (What do I do with it?). It's a Works document with pictures and I have no idea if I have to save it in another format, send the pictures separately, etc...
Sometimes my inability to communicate astonishes me. I blame the devil marijuana.
Since the MQ is still on I'd like to put it there.
And I'll email Bogus to figure out how.
Thanks for the !.

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe'
Fri, March 14, 2008 - 9:52 AMGod I miss a lot quickly:
MQ:
- I hate deadlines too, but sometimes they're all that can motivate me to get something done. I'm working on 2 big pieces for the next MQ: "Year in God" & "How Scrappy the Dog became Schroedinger's Cat."
- I totally understand everyone else's issues with quarterly deadlines, though. Maybe we can talk to Admin about doing it differently through the 5.0. Like, what if it was content based instead of seasonally based? Space instead of Time: We have a place to play with pieces then finally finalize those pieces, and once a specifically set capacity is met, it gets published as a maybe quarterly . . .randomly?? They can come out one after the other for all I care. I DO STILL CARE about the Maybe Quarterly, BUT I DON'T see why people can't double dip pieces everywhere. We've lost so many great thoughts in posts on different forums & other internet spaces. The more web spaces these thoughts appear, the more likely someone who could appreciate them might run into them. I don't read all the threads on Maybe Logic, but I read all the MQs.
OM:
I'd like to get involved with this too. I always quietly laugh inside when I say I'll do another thing like, "yeah right, like all the other things you're gonna do but aren't right now" (which is why I need deadlines).
Mindy: Where's the poem? I love you that you quote towely!
BICYCLES! My brain always plays with this idea and they were whirring through my head just last night for the first time in years before I read Ragu's post!! Since it's in this thread, I have to make this attention:
I see OM & MQ as two wheels on a bike that can spin as they may but are connected by chains that get them both moving somewhere instead of spinning around in the same place. Lame I know, but you know . . . yeah, I'm not a perfectionist ;-) -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe NOT?'
Fri, March 21, 2008 - 5:43 AMI agree about "Maybe Not". If people don't feel the need for a magazine, and don't feel any enthusiasm to create for it, then why does it continue?
When the little circus I worked for started out we did it on 'energy' but after a while that 'self-exploitation' gets tiring (70 hours a week for peanuts) and you need some other reward. Or respect. Or motivation. Fun and food and travel seemed enough to start with. People needed wages.
So I offer a radical solution. Assuming MLA pays its tutors, and pays for a server, and perhaps a web developer - shouldn't it commission a cover from a freelance artist for (gasp) money? I know that might seem like the slippery slope to (shock and awe) paying writers...
I don't know who reads MQ or what it's for. People occasionally say "I read a bit of that thing you wrote, when I came across it". It certainly isn't vanity publishing to me (I feel quite proud enough of churning out a blog on a regular basis).
So how do we encourage new contributors, and how do we organise editions well in advance, and how do we plug the gaps, and proofread and make sure we have everything ready in time? Oh wait, it's something called an Editor. :-)
Hmmm. And an editor might want to get paid, too... -
-
Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe NOT?'
Fri, March 21, 2008 - 11:31 AMApparently, from what I gather from the forum, The Wizard of Oz... I mean Admin... doesn't mind letting people take the occasional class for free (I wouldn't know because I have a fey aversion to accepting and/or asking for gifts.)
So, why not perhaps use the idea of a free class as an incentive?
Like, five MQ pieces = a free class, or something like that.
For all the effort some folks have put in they should never have to pay for a class again (Bobby, Bogus, Borsky, and Fly, off the top of my head.).
Also, a wider pool seems to be needed. More writers... more perspectives. Also, more readers, so that one day some of them might consider contributing.
Marketing? This sounds like a job for Ben Mack (haha)!
I dunno. At any rate, I think I'm gonna try to spam a pharmaceutical site with MQ links. -
-
Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe NOT?'
Fri, March 21, 2008 - 12:29 PMHahahaha on spamming the pharmaceuticals!!
I am also in awe & great appreciation of all the work that Bobby, Bogus, Borsky, & Fly have contributed. You all provide a library of resources for us to enjoy and deserve compensation for sure.
Wider Pool - yes
As far as moneys, maybe MQ fees could be paid alongside polls asking people what they want their money going towards. The money could be divided among tutors, web enhancements, etc. etc. in a ratio that matches poll results? I have no time or money right now, but all should change in a month. Lord knows I'd love to pay towards those above who've been giving me a wealth of information & entertainment for years now for free! And what I wouldn't pay for the time to be able to sit & read James Joyce & all the other great works that make me feel like I can't keep up with many of the discussions anymore. -

Re: Maybe Quarterly#14 - emphasis on 'maybe NOT?'
Thu, March 27, 2008 - 4:55 AMWahoo!
Taking a back seat here, but intrigued by the development of MLA. Maybe it seems like you guys are just having the same conversations about organising the project, but from where I'm sitting (on the edge of the black hole I've been in for the last year) it seems new ideas are indeed appearing. Money! Great, and free classes too. Quid pro quo and all that.
I think, like magic, MQ will keep appearing, simply because of the creativity of the individuals it has, in some way or other, hooked.
But if we wanted to refine it, compact it, give it more clout and more work, perhaps we could do something like decide upon a particular theme for each issue? Just an idea, and not one that has to be resitrictive I dont think.
We could even have a think tank, here or in MLA, where people brain storm particular subjects that (need) to be addressed, particular topics to be 'written' about, and then whoever is interested can pick up on one of them. Not so much because we cant think of ideas for ourselves, just that I would be interested in the effect of the group dynamic.
Having a specific space for it (maybe there already is one) might help with collaborative projects to. If we could have a space where in the first phase ideas are spun out, perhaps structures talked about - what topic goes with what topic and where - then in the second phase people take those ideas away with them, then in the third those ideas come back as a piece of work that everyone has the opportunity to modify/engage with.....could be fun.
But I dont know about how realistic it is to think that we can all do what everyone else is doing! -
