There’s something new in the works here at Nexus. I’ve been talking to Jason for a while, mulling over this idea. I’m sure we have a lot of support for it within the group, and we definitely have the means. This fabulous new idea? A newsletter. Maybe even a magazine, if we get support and resources bumped up.
The thought of a newsletter was first brought up in one of our bimonthly meetings. It was In February, as we sat squished around two Starbucks tables. Jason (that’s the President of this whole powwow) announced that he had been toying around with the idea of a magazine for a while, but never really had backing for it. I, being somewhat into journalism and even more into being creative instantly volunteered for the job.
Since that pivotal meeting, we have thrown out more proposals for parts of it, including a calendar, interviews with bands, articles from the community, venue information, and so much more. Now all that is left to do is meet with Corey and Jason this coming Friday to really delve into planning.
The only things that we really have planned out is this:
1. We want to publish in black and white for the first few issues
2. We won’t go too big for the first few issues. Just a calendar, upcoming events, and maybe a few short articles. As we gain more readers we will get bigger articles.
So the meeting is in two days to get everything set up and get this magazine up and running. Finding a publisher, things to write stories about, and someone to design are on the list of things to discuss.
