   Hi all,

BrickJournal 3 is now out, if you didn’t notice:-)!

Great work Joe! I finally finished reading it yesterday and can’t wait for #4! The writing and in particular the graphic design are excellent. It’s truly a professional quality magazine that anyone in the hobby would be proud of. I’m sure if you can continue with this level of quality you will be successful beyond your wildest dreams.

But there is one small complaint that I have - hinted at by the word “finally” in the previous paragraph. It’s a little too big. I’d much rather have smaller issues being released more often, than have one huge issue every few months. In this case you could have spread out the stories in #3 over several issues released over the past few months.

Other than that one complaint/suggestion I think you’re doing a wonderful job and I hope you can continue in that vein. I eagerly await the next issue....

Hi Bill!

Yeah, the size got out of hand. One of the problems that BrickJournal has to manage is dealing with time-critical stories. It’s already handicapped in that there is only a quarterly schedule for it, which was set up to keep everyone sane:-)

Some of the stories can be spread out, but events should be presented as soon as they can. Issue 3 got a lot of events, and there was actually thought of making an event-only issue, but that was changed.

Issue 4 will be smaller. I think:-)!

Thanks for the compliments too - this has been one fun and creative outlet for me and I am very proud and happy with the magazine and all those who have and will be helping out!

Later,

Joe
