More than a dream September 13, 2006
Posted by Niels in : Magazine , trackbackIf I remember correctly, the idea for the magazine came up as Craig and I were driving around Seattle. “Hey, that would be a cool magazine,” we said.
We looked into it a little more, talked about the types of articles we would have, made a list of people to contact.
I went back to New York, ordered some books off Amazon, and sent out a few emails.
And then everything hit the fan.
Everyone we’ve contacted has been ridiculously enthusiastic. Craig and I made a list of our “dream team” advisory board, and so far even our longshots have been coming through. Talking to random people on the street in New York, everyone has a cousin or a friend in publishing whom they want to put us in touch with. An amazing graphics designer with magazine experience fell in our lap outside Barnes and Noble. Every day this silly idea becomes more and more real. This is actually going to happen.
Incredible.
