The Ken Chronicles #73 was released in late October, 2024, and has 20 pages in b&w plus a cover wrap (the digital PDF version is full color). It's got a brief letters of comment section this time around plus the usual People, Places & Things (that aren't there anymore). It also includes stories about a bakery that's still alive & well after over 50 years, part one of my move from New York to North Carolina, all about Affinity Publisher – an inexpensive but powerful word processing/page layout app, some notes about Pete's Mini Zine Fest this past October, a look at a coast to coast rail trip, and the stuff I recently sold on eBay.


 
Reviews:
"In a world where people are increasingly closed and afraid, Ken remains curious and open. (Ken) considers change and acknowledges what is gone, but isn't afraid to make his own changes – like leaving his long-time home in NY to move to NC to be closer to family. I also enjoyed his take on desktop publishing software and what he switched to so he could continue publishing the Ken Chronicles."  – Davida Breier, Razorcake #146    
 
The print version is available for $5 (or a similar trade), postpaid to the USA.
The PDF version can be sent to your inbox for $2 or a similar trade.

The Ken Chronicles #74 were released the first week of May, 2025. The paper version has 28 pages (plus the cover wrap) in b&w, filled with non-fiction and photos; this issue features the story of my move from New York to North Carolina; People, Places & Things (that aren't there anymore); What I've been reading, watching, etc., lately; and readers' feedback.
