Impossibly Funky Comes from Detroit to Conquer the World!
(DETROIT, MI; October 28, 2010) - Harangue for Hollywood! For fourteen
years Detroit author/editor Mike White toiled nights and weekends on
his movie zine Cashiers du Cinemart. Starting as a scrappy xerox and
stapled publication, the zine mutated over time to a magazine with
international distribution, long after the siren song of the internet
wooed most small publishers to its cheap epublishing. Now, the best of
Cashiers du Cinemart has been collected into one volume, 2010's
Impossibly Funky, a treasure trove of articles about film and popular
culture.
White will be appearing with various guest stars in a Midwest tour in
Autumn 2010, reading, signing copies of his first book, and doing
occasional movie/shorts screenings.
