Hellooo, ReVo!

I don’t know about any of you, but fall is my favourite season! I hate the heat and the cold slows things down too much, but like Goldilocks would have said if she’d had four choices (one of which led straight into the worst option; I’m looking at you, spring and summmer), fall is just right – the days are getting shorter, the weather’s cooling off, and best of all, the holidays are almost here!

I’m sure most people hear “Stabz” and think, “Favourite holiday? It’s gotta be Halloween,” but you know, when every day is Halloween, it makes the real thing that much harder! What does someone who wears black lace, pink frills, and light-up cat ears on an already-regular basis do to dress against her ordinary? (I’ll give you a hint – this year, it involves a big red “R”.) I do love the atmosphere in general, though – the costumes, the decorations, the spooky stories; it’s all great by me!

Of course, Halloween isn’t the only event lurking just over the horizon – Canada’s already gotten the jump on Thanksgiving, the US is ready to find out if turkeys can fly, and of course, winter is present-packed with holy days and cultural celebrations! (And let’s not forget Festivus, because what’s a family get-together without the airing of grievances?) With ReVolutionary Theory being a quarterly publication, this issue will take us right on through to January, so it’s got to do its festive duty all season long! Remember that what you see in the front-page slider is just a sample of what we have for you – there’s always more to be enjoyed by clicking the “current Issue” tab in the menu above!

It seems like things are always changing in our office, and this issue is no exception – we’re welcoming an entire new team of newshounds, all of whom did their best to track down the latest and greatest for you! Anarchy, Da Pale One, and Jordis Tyra Nightblade are our rookie writers; our resident holistic beauty expert, halcyon, is stepping up as my RePresentative right hand; and malice is making the leap to SeNator as she adds the role of magazine graphics madwoman to her existing duties! It’s great to have everyone on board, and we’re looking forward to finding out what’s in store.

That’s it for now! I think I still have time to catch a few more Eevees before I’m knee-deep in snow, but if I don’t make it back before the cold times come, then look for an exciting new feature in the next issue: Frostbite Fun (Or What I Did On My ER Vacation)!
