Forum Without Letters: Why Electra Might Close After Issue 3

Electra #02

FORUMS

This is that most popular section which, for some reason, nobody likes. Dislikes it because not a single soul has written to us. Nobody wants to participate in the competition, nobody wants to establish new contacts with other Sinclairists, nobody wants to ask questions, share an evaluation, write an article and receive a fee, offer advice, suggestions, criticism, and other goodies. Nobody even wants to place an advertisement for free! Well okay, what else is there to say. This section, which is so very popular in the magazines "ZX-REVIEW" and "SPECTROFON", is not and will not be in our magazine for as long as you show no activity. And in general, I will use this opportunity to remind you with malicious joy that the next issue will probably be the last, because as I already wrote in the first issue, if we do not receive heaps of letters during the release period of the first three issues, we will not continue. Because that means we are doing redundant work that nobody needs, and that there is NO POINT!

If you begrudge a stamp, you can leave your mail at Latgales tirgus, at STUDIO A or with Paša. You can bring disks there with competition music, ads, letters, and anything else. Put it in an envelope or a paper bag, and write on it:

  • To the ELECTRA editorial office. Write in Latvian, Russian, English, German, or Chinese.
