IRL I work as an independent newsstand sales, publishing and marketing consultant. I specialize in medium and smaller sized publications with a focus on regional magazines. To me the potential for melding single copy sales in the print world with single copy sales in the digital is something worth striving for.
Beyond life in my oddly shaped office, I am a husband, father, failed but energetic gardener, avid cyclist, 5K runner, dabbler in local politics, dog walker and cat sitter.
Will we citizens of the publishing business avoid the iceberg and come safely into harbor? Who knows? But the voyage is interesting.
