Down here the drift from formal clubs to sessions and singarounds has reduced bulk sales of efn but that is matched by the increase in individual subscriptions while advertising is stronger than ever. The other magazines in the region all appear to be in good health, the big problem is getting somebody to take on the committment when the existing editor has to give up. |
