The Next Big Thing

For several past hours, there has been a hot new rumour circulating the publishing world and certain groups of people with "special" interests. Over here, we have risked our puny little lives to bring you glimpse of this rumour, ahead of Cleo and company, so that you will be ready.

Rumour has it that an exciting new magazine, or newsletter, is to be published anytime soon. But readership is supposedly exclusive. Extremely exclusive. Our soft toy sources have vaguely confirmed that it is not on fashion, design, food, TV or teen angst. Additionally, the devious and brilliant team behind this elusive magazine is highly skilled ghost writers who may or may not be able to eat 3 cheeseburgers in a happy mood.

If you are artistically inclined, beware for it is also hot gossip among LaSelle art students that the elusive editorial team is in need of a temporary magazine artist, as the resident artist has fled the country with hopefully sufficient Ringgit.

As to what the magazine deals with, it is difficult to ascertain as our top commercial spies have all been "swiftly and discreetly dealt with". The last we heard from our best spy, Lightning-Foot-Tied-to-Heavy-Lead, he screamed in horror and delirium about a blazing daisy. That was the end of him and whoever he had encountered must surely have been a Class 5. All we can confirm is that different factions of truly evil powers have voiced their interest but have stupidly sent their magazine subscription fees to the Singapore Press Holdings instead.

So, although we ourselves cannot be sure, do keep a lookout at newstands and old men selling papers. If you notice a snazzy, hip, attractive magazine on sale, grab it! But remember to pay for it. Any such helpful readers who can get us a copy or even provide crucial information such as the price after GST shall be generously rewarded with leftover dog kibbles artisically arranged.
