I write this update in a somber mood. After one year of operation and what I consider 8 stellar issues, World Famous Magazine is closing up shop.
Our staff has enjoyed producing this magazine so much. Every member of this team is extremely proud of the editorial content that we were able to provide our readers for the past year. Unfortunately, our editorial game could not keep World Famous afloat all on its own. As good as we feel that we are on the content side of things, we found ourselves unable to translate that to the financial statement.I want to thank all our friends (Myspace related and not) because in one way or another, you were instrumental in allowing us to create World Famous. Whether you were a reader, a publicist, an artist, or something else, we are sending you this letter to say thank you. Thank you for going out of your way for our humble little publication. Chances are you gave us your eyes and ears way earlier than we had any right to expect.The World Famous staff is already working to make sure that the music we believed in enough to start our own magazine does not get ignored in the future. You will see our writers’ and editors’ names in a gang of other publications in the near future. Hopefully, when you recognize those names wherever they pop up, it will bring a fond sense of nostalgia for World Famous to your mind.On a more formal note, I will be available to address any unresolved business concerns over the next few months. Please contact me at 404-357-5896 or [email protected] and I’ll do my best to settle any outstanding matters.Thank you for being a part of World Famous. We appreciate the contributions and patronage of everyone who took even a moment to check out our brand of soul journalism.
