Without going into personal details. Over a year ago I was laid off, and paid a retainer.

So I used to be a full time employee a year and a half ago, and then I was a freelance "executive editor." Titles are made up in the world, so what it said was I worked there. That doesn't mean anything. None of us owned or were a part of the company other than paid employees.

This project happened because of the other magazine ending. It wasn't us who had anything to do with the business side.
