  • Dear Diary by Dean Shewring "We're actually a bit ahead of schedule in our Society's efforts to recover from our long hiatus. John and I are working together to edit The Recorder, and we've added Edward Chapentier... to our production team to help give our publication a more professional look. Our first aim has been to get The Recorder back schedule, which should occur with the publication of our fall issue. 'Forest of Words' is back! 'Classic Quotes' should reappear in our summer issue, where you will find Part Two of our Vision '93 press conference interview with Wendy Padbury. Our next aim will be to get our fanzine, Cosmic Hobo, back into publication. Membership Renewal forms are enclosed with this issue for those whose memberships have been extended. You will receive the next issue and eventually, your copy of Cosmic Hobo #4 -- when we are finally able to get it published! All this, whether you decide to renew or not! Renewing your membership in the P.T.A.S. will bring you a new laminated membership card, four more quarterly issues of "The Recorder" and a copy of Cosmic Hobo #6 -- which should be out by late 1995 or early 1996."
