Minor Monthly Magazine

Post by goldfish »

Just had a message on facebook that Custom Creations has ceased trading and until further notice no more copies of Minor Monthly will be printed. You can obtaina PDF file if you contact them directly. Here's hoping they find a new publisher soon!

Please visit the website and sadly the publisher Custom Creations has ceased trading.

It is with deep regret that we are writing this, but we wish Kirsty Beach all the very best with her future venture and thank her for being a superb publisher for Minor Monthly for just over two years. However, do not despair readers, a new publisher will be sourced in the coming months, if you’re a publisher or know of one that would be interested let us know. In the meantime if you want to remain a faithful reader of Minor Monthly e-mail us your contact details to features@minormonthly.co.uk and we’ll make sure you’re one of the first to know when and where you can purchase your next all new copy of Minor Monthly.

Minor Monthly will continue thanks to our loyal readers and our constant travels we have enough content to fill the magazine for the next 12 months at least. The magazine has been part of my life since its first issue in 1995 as a reader, from 1999 as a contributor and then as editor from 2008. I can assure you I don’t want to loose it as much as you do and my endeavours to find a publisher will continue and I am sure Minor Monthly will re-appear again in 2012, and then our 200th issue will follow. Sincere thanks to our loyal contributors, readers and advertisers and I hope we can count on your continued support in the coming months.

The quest for that publisher is on!

Russ, I'm sure that any potential publisher would want to know, so if it's not ultra-sensitive, can you confirm the circulation. I wish you every success in finding a new publisher, the more exposure that the Minor has, the better.
