I did, with my thoughts. All I know is that Susan did not "want" to leave. Is
this bid process new? I do not remember hearing about this until recently. One
thing we can all agree on is that the review is only as good as the advertising
revenue. That is a huge challenge I know. I so appreciate those who advertise.
Gone are the days of 200 page reviews full of dogs and pedigrees. I would be
happy to see show results with more detail and bigger pictures. That's it. Best

Maybe we're not. I have been reading the magazine for almost 40 years and this
is the best I've seen it in years. This editor is approachable and engaging.
I have nothing against the former editor--I am commenting objectively.
Naturally there is always room for improvement. The people with
complaints/questions/suggestions should contact Kathleen. She is VERY
receptive.

The membership should be thanked for continuing to support The Review. I
jumped in as a volunteer Review liaison and helper in February 2017. Kathleen
and Jessica do all the work.
Due to an increase in advertisements, (86% increase May-August 2016 versus
May-August 2017) lower costs, and Kathleen negotiating better printing rates,
the price to advertise a color ad went from $425 down to $295. The August
Issue in 2016 was 75 pages; in 2017 that has grown to 116. Please continue to
submit articles!
So that everyone understands all 3 paid positions GSDCA went out for bid in
2017. To the best of my knowledge; Kathleen plans to apply for The Editor
position.
Again; the membership has been a tremendous part of the growth.
If you have suggestions or complaints; we would love your feedback!
No, I am not sending this for political reasons, I am off The BOD this year and
not running again.

Kathleen is a super editor. Because of her, Jess McMillan, Linda, and others,
I feel The Review has been brought back to its glory days. I hadn't advertised
in years, but HAVE advertised twice this last year. Kudos to The Review Gang
for jobs well done.
