Seems there are lots of varying opinions on the latest Lonny Magazine... Some good, some mediocre, some well, quite direct! Nonetheless, I do admire the team's work and their innovation to create the magazine is inspiring regardless of whether the issue was up your alley or not. I do love to read about entrepreneurs, I have always found throwing myself outside my comfort zone to be a challenge, so hearing about people leading with innovation inspiring indeed! Kellie xx
Yes, you've said it perfectly. Michelle and her team have done a great job with their project. I think of it like every other real paper magazine, some issues I may like more than others. some issues I treasure because I simply love every page, some issues may not appeal as much but that doesn't mean I don't still look forward to next month's!
ReplyDeleteI agree! Thanks for the positivity today. :)
ReplyDeleteGood on you Kelly for being so positive. People are quick to criticize in this industry. Takes all kinds, we all have different tastes. With such a positive outlook and a determination to embrace challenges... you will do well with your ventures! A-M xx
ReplyDeleteI think Lonny is doing a great job. It is simply impossible to please ust everybody!
ReplyDeleteI agree. I really think it's because their summer issue was amazing so it will be hard for them to top that one. They are doing an amazing job so you are very right.
ReplyDeleteI agree I think there were bits I liked bits I didn't but that is pretty much the same with all magazines. Which is one of the reasons I rarely buy them! I think what they have done is very gutsy. And you too!! Online businesses are very challenging. xoxo
ReplyDeleteI like this issue - it's a great mix of beautiful pics and inspirational people! :)
ReplyDeleteI went through it tonight, and I liked some things and not others. I would have liked to have seen more large pictures. When viewing on line, unless you use the zoom all the time, many of the pics were really small. I like to run through it once and if nothing really catches my eye, Im done. I do admire what they are doing, I just don't think this was the best issue.
ReplyDeleteI haven't looked at this new issue, but it seemed to follow the other issue very quickly, which might be the reason. I enjoyed what I saw of the last issue, but I just don't have the time to sit on my computer and browse through something the size of Lonny (unfortunately), even over weeks. That said, I think it's a very interesting idea, and kudos to the team. I would love to write for them, but I don't have time for that, either!
ReplyDeleteHavent had chance to see yet Kellie, will have to have a look :))
ReplyDeletehi kelly, the thing about online publications is there is an instant response which can be shared amongst many people straight away. I think its good people express constructive criticism as this can be valuable feedback that editors of paper magazines do not have access to. Also its a different environment now. In the past editors told us what is on trend whereas now many people have a hand in it. I think its exciting! But I totally agree with you about the way some people choose to express their opinions and we should appreciate the effort Michelle and her team put into each issue.
