			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.parkingblockpublishing.com/publications/#jay">Jay</a> and <a href="http://www.parkingblockpublishing.com/publications/#domz">Dominique&#8217;s</a> zines have been selling well. All of our zines make top notch gifts for the holiday season. Pick up one or two for your best friends.</p>
<p>Photographer Isaac McKay-Randozzi sent over this postcard. Look for his zine in 2010.</p>
<div align="center"><img src="http://www.parkingblockpublishing.com/images/isaac_frame.jpg" alt="Isaac McKay-Randozzi half frame postcard" width="400" height="266"></div>
<p>Chris Smith&#8217;s been hard at work. His gallery has recently been receiving numerous accolades and high fives. Most recently <a href="http://the-medicine-cabinet.blogspot.com/" target="new">the Medicine Cabinet</a> was named the <a href="http://best.newcity.com/2009/11/11/best-gallery-space-located-in-a-bathroom/" target="new">&#8220;Best Gallery Space Located in a Bathroom&#8221;</a> by New City. His zine &#8220;Inland Architect&#8221; should be finished soon. Here&#8217;s how he describes it. &#8220;Taking its title from a century old Chicago based architecture journal,Inland Architect is a story of cast off materials told through a haunted tutorial for survival where isometric descriptions of their absurd assembly drift  between vignettes of decimated landscapes then back to rigid design proposals.&#8221;</p>
<div align="center"><img src="http://www.parkingblockpublishing.com/images/IA_cover_chris_smith.jpg" alt="Inland Architect"></div>
<p>Alex Cohen stopped by to drop off art work and put the finishing touches on his zine. It should be coming out in January. You can read his updated bio on the <a href="http://www.parkingblockpublishing.com/artists/">artist page</a>.</p>
