Paul at AI Magazine has sent in word from AI:
A big Thank you – I think it’s about time to give credit where credit is due. It’s not me or the loyal bunch of contributors and staff that Ai has (although without them Ai would not be what it has become today) it’s you guys our readers. Ai is still bucking the downwards trend in news trade sales. In fact since Ai launched over three years ago our circulation has constantly grown.
Success itself brings its own problems. Take for instance the Wannabe special (Not that it was a problem) was the 13th issues in this year’s publishing calendar, which meant that we had to find a 13th month in a 12 month calendar (which was no mean feat in itself) and now we’ve not just created a 13 month year, but what we had to do is nick a day from here and a day from there to give us a window to get this 13th issue on the streets. Initial reports suggest that the specials are here to stay so look out for some more AI goodness around this time next year.
