I subscribe to this magazine. It's great to see what is happening on the other side of the pond.x

I subscribed and received my first issue within about 6 weeks. There are some good articles in the magazine, but IMO I find it to be a little bit heavy on the advertising. Saying that, I do understand that advertising is what pays for the publication. I just wish there was a better balance.

I know they would consider articles is you wanted to submit or even recommend a topic

Hi Fran -

It's about half ads and about half articles and has been that way for many, many years (I think we're at 46 years and counting.)

A lot of our subscribers and advertisers know each other - when I was a subscriber and not the editor, I wanted to see the ads as much as the articles, in most cases.

So for most (obviously not all) of our subscribers it seems to be a balance that they're pretty happy with. It's also the balance that has let us keep the rates flat (even down a little for international) in a bad economy.

FWIW.

just noticed this thread - sounds really good - have sent an email to Lisa asking for a sample copy.

Just a reminder - I've received a few emails recently asking for samples - if you want a sample of the Sep/Oct 2010 issue, just email your name and mailing address to lisa@thebasenji.com

Thanks!
