I, Smut Master.


Hello,

My name is Amber and I'm the founder/wrangler/curator/editor of this foine schmut zine and I'm damn loud and proud about it!

We are entering a new era of sexiness, based in community, unity and plurality. Lickety Split is expanding: we have a new PR team, a new print run (1000 copies this October!), fresh new ideas from seasoned and apprentice Lickety smutsters as well as a load of upcoming events which we will be sneak pre-viewing here veryvery soon! Fits in well with our issue #5 Multiples theme eh?

A note about the origins of Lickety Split smut zine:
"The first issue was printed in January 2004 but we were talkin' shit and frontin' about LS long before that! Since then it's been an annual journal, usually 80 pages in length, B/W, 5.5 by 7.5 inches with silkscreened covers designed by the arteest Sherwin Tjia. Lickety Split's name was thought up by the filthy brains belonging to the world's sexiest rock duo Holy Moly; check out their interview in issue #1. The cinematic shape of the zine was suggested by local filmmaker Mike Rollo. In all reality, Amber Goodwyn is only responsible for asking people for stuff and bossing people around."

...and if you're not familiar with the quote we love to pimp, check it out:
"If you don't like what you see out your window, the most subversive thing you can do is make your own vision. If criticizing sex is so important, then where are our role models? Who do you think is going to make erotic expression meaningful
to you if not yourself? " - Susie Bright, Full Exposure
