In 1968, Mary and I announced a number of titles we were to publish together. Unfortunately, our plans were derailed when both of us subsequently left San Francisco \u2014 she for New York, I for Paris. The ad below appeared in EARTHQUAKE #4<\/em>. Of the titles listed on the left, I published four of them: Drive Suite, The Dead Star, A Book About Love & War & Death,<\/em> and Miss Vietnam.<\/em> Four other titles \u2014 The End and The Way, 23 Extensions, Alice in Progress,<\/em> and Muschar Blee Rosch <\/em>\u2014 were not published.<\/p>\n\n\n
