New magazine!

Woo-hoo! A co-worker gave me a subscription form today for a new magazine, Woodworking for Women. It's a special price of $19.97 (plus postage/handling $3.98) for two years. Pretty good deal if you ask me.

I haven't seen this magazine on the newsstands, so I can't vouch for the value of it. But the promotional material looks promising. Here's part of the ad copy:

"Finally, a woodworking magazine designed and written BY women, FOR women that shows you--THE EASY WAY--to build anything for your home, garden, or gift list."

As I read further, I see some of the project types listed: window boxes, plant stands, trivets, music boxes, scarecrows, rocking horses ...........???? Hmm. I also see end tables, bookcases, and magazine racks. I hope there's some beef behind the bun. At least they say the magazine includes info on joinery and routing.

There's no web address included on the promo material, but here's the address in case anyone wants to take them up on their offer of a free issue:

Woodworking for Women
P.O. Box 8000
Big Sandy, TX 75755

If anyone is familiar with this publication, let me know what you think. If I subscribe, I'll post my opinions here. Who knows? If I find it to be a worthwhile magazine, maybe I'll pitch an article to the editors. Writing is my job, after all.
