Having lived in Rochester for only four days now, we can truly say that life is very different. We've had to make adjustments in both our living and work styles, and honestly, it's been transformational. Here is a shot of my work office here in our room - it's a little cluttered, but the chair is comfortable. I am pictured discussing Microsoft Word computer settings for our freelancers with my Art Director Alan Huber on Friday, as we have been having trouble importing some of their Word copy into our graphic design program. All I can say is, thank goodness for technology! And thanks, Alan, for sorting it all out!
All kidding aside, I want to mention the fantastic editorial and production staff at my home base of Source Interlink Media in El Segundo, without whom I could not be here. I call them my podmates and fellow hostages, but they are my extended family and have nurtured and supported us from the beginning of our journey. So Christian, John, Greg, Alan, Mark, Craig, Courtney, Sean, Ken, Pete and Camille, I thank you every day for your help and friendship. I have a great Executive Publisher, Steve, and there are many others who are pitching in, but there is one in particular who almost singlehandedly made it possible for me to work here. I would not be able to sleep at night if it weren't for her efforts. To the best boss ever, Amy, a thousand thanks.
Last, but by no means least, special thanks to Angel, who encouraged me to write this blog and who designed the banner for us. He is a special friend, sensei, and the Renaissance man of digital design!
Well, better get back to my pod to read about JKs, Raptors, and the new diesel S-10. Jealous?!
