Frequently Asked Questions

More about this whole deal, such as it is.

Is this real?

Yes. More or less.

The Monroe Street Tattler is a real neighborhood paper about real local places, real small observations, and real matters of limited public importance. Its tabloid appearance should not be mistaken for actual scandal.

Who runs this?

The Tattler is made by a neighborhood resident with an interest in local food, small details, and giving the neighborhood one more tiny thing to talk about and have fun with.

What is this about?

Local food, neighborhood oddities, small mysteries, overheard gems, reader-made bits of neighborhood life, and anything else that seems to deserve more attention than it strictly requires.

How do I get a print copy?

Printed copies circulate irregularly around the neighborhood, often in places one might reasonably expect to find a small, opinionated newspaper.

If you would like a future issue sent your way, use the interest form on the homepage or write to MonroeStreetTattler@gmail.com. Depending on demand, availability, and the limits of human logistics, the Tattler may be able to mail, deliver, or otherwise route a copy in your direction.

How do I submit something?

Write to MonroeStreetTattler@gmail.com.

The Tattler welcomes reader-made bits of neighborhood life: small local discoveries, strongly held opinions, tiny mysteries, drawings, cartoons, puzzles, corrections, questions, overheard gems, and anything else that feels funny, useful, oddly specific, or worth preserving.

When will the next issue come out?

Hopefully soon.

The Tattler appears when curiosity, civic spirit, or questionable editorial judgment require publication.
