Saw the notice on the top of the forum page about looking for writers. Was tempted, but then looked at my daily planner for the next three months and realized that for me, it would be more work than fun.
Yeah I figured as much. Its too bad that magazines are going the way of the dinosaur...the anticipation of seeing something new and exciting every month, wearing out a spine from reading cover to cover, and all the while anticipating the next issue has been replaced with instant gratification. It sucks. Nobody seems to have patience anymore. And I'm only 27, so I cannot imagine how useless libraries and subscriptions will be when my son is old enough to need answers...
