This book is a compilation of three zines of poetry and prose, first self-published between 2001 and 2003 —Bebop Coffee Shop, The Fabulous Adventures of Yours Truly, & Spoken Jazz & the tingg * Machine. The idea is for it to stand alone as its own work while complementing the episodic audio musical of the same name, in which this book was written. The zines were created with an early fifties portable typewriter called the Remington tingg * Machine, original black & white photography, crude sketches, glue sticks, scissors, and innumerable hours at Kinko's.
