Overview

We're going to start sending press releases sometime in August 2010, so Trevor and I are looking for places to send them. Trevor has a large database of people and places to send press releases or solicitation/invitations, but we could always send more. Please add any person, website or organization you can think of that might be relevant as a place to promote the shop. Emails are free, so there's no harm in sending it and it could generate more word of mouth for the shop.
