The Start: You Are Here

My whole body is charged with excitement. Here I am putting the finishing touches on my very first webzine. I�m normally like this when finishing a zine. Buzzing with excitement, ideas racing through my head. This time though, there�s something more. Pumpkin isn�t like my old Cobweb. Cobweb is the material, as in you can hold it in your hands, version of Pumpkin. I love Cobweb, but it doesn�t have the carrying power that Pumpkin does. The whole world can read my words now!

Just for reference, I happen to be living in France at the moment as a foreign exchange student. I am right in the north, where its cold and rainy, but that doesn�t matter much. I�m learning loads, and that�s what its all about.

Fear not, by the end of this zine you will know why I chose to name it Pumpkin. Within this issue you will find all kinds of things that I felt like writing about, just like in Cobweb. At the top of each article I give you a little information about it. At the end of my zine I provide a link to my comments form, an easy way to let me know what you think about it. So if you like my zine or hate it let me know. I�m planning on putting up a reader�s comment�s section in my next issue, so I would really appreciate your feedback.

So for now consider me your torch in the dark. I will guide you through my world. Be prepared to feel surprised, love, hate, and anything else. After all, this is me. What more can you expect?
