Boom! -- Vol. 1, Issue 1, is almost ready

We met today with the students at Karazin National University who are creating an independent student newspaper. They have finished writing all the stories (and have a lot left over for Issue No. 2). Over the weekend, the students did the layout for a four-page paper.

Today, we looked at the proofs. The students scrutinized every word and made notes about things to be corrected or fixed. Final changes will be made by Friday; 1,000 copies will be printed on Saturday; and then Vol. 1, Issue 1, will be distributed on Monday.

We’ll meet with the Karazin students again on Tuesday to begin work on the second issue. Initially, the students were planning to publish one issue a month. But now, they're considering producing two issues a month. Everyone agreed that it's a lot of work but well worth it. Here's a photo of one of the students, Aleena, with the proof copy of the first issue of BOOM!.
