Bri Bri the layout guy, just singlehandedly saved my gluteal area by lovingly and painstakingly helping cut, and move around pieces in the magazine. We had to lose a few departments but really, this is a good thing in that it shows major growth. It is such a learning process...more ads plus more content equals more pages.
Who knew it would also equal THOUSANDS more dollars in printing costs! Hence, the cut...a month or two more will likely bump us up to 40 pages. FORTY pages. A REAL magazine. WOW.
Anyway, he is the type to remain calm in a crisis and had me laughing myself silly talking like a pirate when explaining to me how he would fix this problem of cutting 4 pages.
He had already laid out most of the magazine but was there a hint of irritation in his voice? No.....just a calm countenance in the face of a challenge and a near panicky editor.
I REALLY like this guy people. Of course, his working for a multi-million dollar magazine brought him all the experience needed for our little lovely so little things like this while HUGE for me, rolled right off his back as if it were nada.
He is the ultimate fit for the magazine and we were blessed to have him. Shout out to Bri people please and thank him for helping me have one less crazy day.
Bri- I love ya man!

Good job Brian. Here's hoping the mom's column made it to print. I just love that woman who writes it. She is so talented and witty.
Bran- you've done wonders for the magazine, and you're a Mac guy- that's cool!
Brian I meant...not Bran
