About Me

ABOUT FRANK MAGAZINE

Let's be FRANK. Imagine young Australian women having access to an add-free, intelligent and thought provoking magazine that encourages critical thinking, creativity, empowerment and fun.
There's currently not a lot on offer, most womens magazines spill over with diets, celebrities, stereotypes, and 'glossy' supermodel ads. And FRANKLY, we're over it.....
so we would like you to meet FRANK - FRANK Magazine - the 'wide awake' magazine for young women!
FRANK is a FREE magazine for young women and is currently run by volunteers. The magazine is published every two months by the FRANK team.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

How FRANK Magazine got started


After working as a journalist for many years, Karen Miles dreamed a big dream in 1998....to create a magazine for young women that contained positive, attainable, genuine infomation about living a happy, healthy life.
Forget dieting, models, celebrities, and stupid tips, Karen wanted the magazine to be about real career advice, inspiration, relationships, current affairs, and education.
Karen spent two years trying to convince hundreds of advertisers, partners and publishers that her magazine idea was "financially viable". With little support Karen refused to give up and started to make her vision happen on her own.
In August 2003, Karen called her Journalist friend Katie Delaney. They decided to just go for it- to create their own magazine together as 'volunteers' without any money and a total ban on advertisers pushing products and air brushed ads. Karen then called Jessica Kiely her business partner at Youth 2 Youth, and pitched the concept - and Jessica was on board!
The name FRANK came about one day after Karen, Katie & Jessica's first magazine meeting. They had all come up with their own list of possible magazine names that expressed the magazine's thought-provoking, intelligent and straight-talking content.
On Karen's list was the word "frank". Karen emailed the name to Katie and Jessica, and Katie was on the phone in a flash -they both had the same name stuck in their heads!
We all figured, if you are going to share infomation that "tells it like it is", you may as well be "FRANK".
So that's how you came to have a copy of FRANK on your computer screen!
