I have to tell you that this last issue of Joie (issue #4) has been a real bitch to put together. I had several contributors back out on me at the last minute, which was horrible, but luckily I had several more step in at the last minute to take their place. Plus, I’ve been having the the back issue and sitting is a real pain in the ass…literally. And finally, for some reason this issue was just more difficult for me to layout. But, I think I pulled it all together and I must say, as always, it’s a real labor of love and I wouldn’t miss out on it for nothing!
Joie, if you didn’t already know, is my quarterly lifestyle magazine that I edit around a theme. Once I decide on a theme, I invite artists, writers & photographers to come up with articles and photo essays inspired by that theme and then I put the issue together, so all the content is completely original to the issue. Isn’t that awesome?
Take a look at Issue #4. Make sure to rate it over on Issuu and come back here and tell me what you think of it in the comments. I’d love to hear your thoughts.
Lovely magazine 🙂 I’m interested in finding out if you’re accepting future contributions (specifically for crafts).
