Ahoy readers,
Welcome to this week’s edition of The Insider. I’m sure I don’t need to tell you what a great choice you made reading this issue. You’re a smart, savvy reader who knows what you like, and that’s why we like you.
In case you missed last week’s springtime flower issue, there’s an exciting new addition to The Insider – me!
Former editor Katie Mackenzie has moved on to new endeavors, so I’m leaving my post as a very lightly-seasoned reporter and crossing over to the dark side of the newsroom to fill the void.
Over the coming months, you’ll likely see a few changes to your beloved Insider, including a new mix of columns and features, a revamped layout and, if possible, even more sass than before. My goal is to keep the focus on hyper local issues while continuing to spotlight the trends and quirks that make Concord unique.
We’re embarking on an experimental journey of sorts, so please bear with us through any turbulence.
If all else fails, I’m determined to win your hearts the surest way possible: with shameless flattery. (Have I mentioned that your hair looks great today?)
Now that you’re sufficiently buttered up, allow me to ask you a favor: If there’s anything you’d like to see more of in The Insider – if you have a story idea, a question, a rant, gripe, or if you’d just like to say hello – give me a holler.
Assuming I still have your attention, let me give a shout out to Monitor editor, designer and cartoonist extraordinaire Clay Wirestone, whose guidance and stylistic expertise have been an asset in producing this week’s issue. If you picked up an issue, you may have noticed the snazzy cover and colorful center spread. He did that. And if he hasn’t lost all patience with us after this issue, Clay plans to stick around and help out while I get the hang of things. Isn’t he wonderful?
On that note, I’ll leave you to devour this issue. See you next week!
Humbly,
Amy
