We've been re-structuring and re-organizing and figuring out our titles and today I was asked to list what I do for each magazine. When I meet new people and they ask me what I do for work I usually mutter and stumble something about writing and editing text for a scrapbook magazine. But now I can tell them with complete confidence exactly what I do! It may take me an hour to say it all, but I've figured it out nonetheless :)
