Don't know all these people but there are certainly many familiar names. Looks like a very talented line up. Am so looking forward to seeing the first issue with MR's touch. Should be a very exciting new venue!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a good line up. I am always following Mitchell Owens. He is one of my favorites.

Wow - what a lineup of talent! I can't wait to see what they will produce together with Margaret Russell!!
