    Default 33>104 New Magazine In Production NOW! Suck it Flow!

    Just Kidding, Flow. Well folks, many articles are written, ad space sold, and hundreds of photos have been shot. Now it is all coming together, first issue should drop in time for armageddon, includes:

    I still need some interviews with some prominent names, and we need a proper ad space sales person, but besides that there is enough content for several issues. I will have the cover proof and a test spread back from the printer/separator end of next week.

    Anyone who wants to be a part of this hit me up, I need content, cartoons would be killer, whatever you do good.
    Love,

    Nothing is WRONG with The Flow, but no one can deny that it's not what it was. I have every issue of the Flow, the change was gradual, but it's evolved over the years for sure.

    I'd welcome a new magazine if for no other reason than to shake things up and knock off some of the dust that's been settling for too long.

    That said, I have seen several attempts start and stop in the same quarter. If there's any money in it then it's long money, and that's a huge risk. It _HAS_ to be a labor of love or it will fail. I knew Wil and Jen when they were starting The Flow, there's no question that The Flow exists today because they sacrificed damn near everything for the first few years of that magazine - and they're still on that grind. You're going to have to fight for your place at the Grown Ups table.

    That's amusing because the other day I saw someone bitching that it was too much functional glass.

    FWIW, you started losing me at the "Curry Curtain" reference.

    I was gone at this:

    I don't think you would have been received with such harsh criticism if you hadn't started things out with such a snide little joke. if you value your investment I would suggest you get a different spokesperson. first impressions are crucial and in my opinion this will be with you for a while.

    That was sort of what I was thinking.

    Adam, let me ask you something. If you worked next to another lampworker who every time they finished a piece, looked at it, and said "Suck it Snodgrass!" would that lower your opinion of Snodgrass, or would it lower your opinion of the person who says it?

    I think you have an interesting idea, though I think that some of the things you've mentioned are more likely topics for a certain well established counter culture periodical with a team of expensive lawyers behind it. With that being said, we're all a big family here. Wil and Jen are good people who do a LOT to keep the US flameworking scene alive and thriving. Jim at Glassline as well. I work alone in my garage, and other than being on here, I talk in person with three or four flameworkers on a semi-regular basis, mostly all pipemakers. So every time one of those Flow or Glassline issues arrives for me, it's like a little life preserver, being thrown out to keep me afloat and remind me of ALL the things that can be done with glass. I might not work in soft glass, and I might still have mandrels that have their original coating of bead release on them, but I still read those articles, and still learn from them. Would I love an all boro magazine? Possibly, if it's done well, but that wouldn't make any of our other two flameworking magazines any less special to me.

    So yeah, good luck. But perhaps the negativity that comes through in your magazines title and this thread title might be additional baggage that you should consider throwing overboard before they weigh you down too much.
    The most helpful bit of advice I've ever received:

    I also have every issue of the Flow, and agree that, on average, it has become more of a bead mag than a boro mag. That said, it's still fantastic, and you (Adam) don't win any points anywhere for being a dick about it, even in jest.

    And while I think all of your non-glass article ideas are interesting for High Times, I think you're doing a disservice to the glass community by including crap like 'making erlll'. They do nothing but perpetuate stereotypes, and IMO will adversely affect whether or not some places carry the mag.

    I'll still subscribe.

    Not everyone's gonna like you, or what you do.

    I dig it though, and I don't mind you stepping all over the line. I wouldn't do it myself but I enjoy reading about it and will subscribe!

    Cant wait to see it. Since we're in the digi age are you considering a digital mag. that could save on overhead and still bring in subscription $ . And if it were in the apple bookstore you'd have instant acces to alot of folks...
    My inspiration to come here, gear up, and work on the torch were all coddled by "inspiration fog", which has then opened my eyes to other things a lamper could make. I for one ,would see this mag aimed straight at me.
    I don't see you stepping over the line. Some folks are just uncomfortable associating with sOcial stigma, where that line is is different for everyone.

    This conversation reminds me of funny comedians that get shows for being funny and then have to cut up their act to appeal to the corporate boards that support them. Now they all do free podcasts.... They do it cus they love comedy, I suspect you share the same passion.
    You will have your own following of lampers/ pipers
    (are folks saying these things to protect you or because they want you advocate their style...)

    A well rounded lamper who has had various exposure to all lampworking aspects and technique will have its benifets over the guy who just makes pipes however it doesn't hurt to have an identity!
    I would identify with your mag as i do ht.

    I don't see any sense in tiptoeing around the fact of what people put in the pipe?
    I like the attitude. It was clear as day you Were being facetious . It's not like your stealing customers or talking shit....
    Props
