has been a little bit more attention placed on fashion and video in this month’s Songwriter’s Monthly. For instance, check out the first article on With Beating Hearts! Issue numbering: As readers who have remained loyal over the past several years already know, I broke off from doing the magazine format for a little while. The internet seemed to favor single articles over full issues. However, now that everyone has a blog or a place to post and more people can successfully read on handheld devices, it seems magazines have become something of value once again. In fact, the total reads from our January 2014 issue obliterated even our highest numbers from back when we were a print magazine (that was available in stores worldwide). Thank you!!! So, I’d like to pick up numbering the issues again . . . only it’s kinda complicated to say exactly where we are. I spent a little bit of time figuring out where we would be if we had never abandoned the numbering of issues. The end result . . . I’ve calculated this issue to roughly be #153. So, issue #153 it is!
