--> I went to a party the other night and someone, as usual, asked about when the next issue of X Magazine was coming out. I didn't answer. I never do anymore. X Magazine #6 has become a tremendous burden in the back of [at least my] mind. A serious case of publisher's block? We've had this issue "nearly ready for press" for two years now, completely dumping out-dated content no less than seven times. The staff has grown from three to ten. The office has grown from my living room to a 1000 sq. foot office suite. But to me, publishing this issue will be a combination of the greatest satisfaction and the biggest relief of anything we've ever done.
 --> Although it's been a while since the last issue of X Magazine, we haven't just been sitting on our asses. We've had to make money somehow. In fact, we've published more than 70 issues of other magazines since we last published X. Among them such titles as Exotic, Rendezvous, Modern Goddess and X.Online [which continues on, merged with X Magazine]. So we've gained a lot of experience and talent since the last issue. Hopefully it will show. X Magazine is created by combining the best of what we can do into one quarterly over-hyped mouthful.
