magazines

was talking to a friend who's getting into freelance writing about magazines. and she said, we should start one.

and i got to thinking - how much wld it take to start one?

and we talked about that and also how wld we set the mag apart from the others? def not a fashion mag cos tt's all been done. travel is too high budget.

i always thought that singapore needs a better entertainment magazne. we've only got 8days and now there's first but how about something more tuned into music? not just international but also singapore. so music, movies and books maybe. like entertainment weekly, singapore style?

would anyone be interested in that?

Well, personally I think starting a weekly publication might just be a bit ambitious. You would probably need a rather huge team. Why not start monthly? By the way there was a mag on local music scene, BigO. Not sure whether they are still surviving. It would be great if the mag can feature local talents in the music and arts scene.

just my 2ct worth. :)

Yeah, was talking to a friend too about mags. I think we could do with a movies, entertainment, music and books one! Between you, me, and several other friends of ours, i'm sure we could come up with something!
