Getting Started

What does a publication do?

The initial phase of my magazine project involved understanding the role of publications. I discovered that publications served many functions, including:

• Preserving memories: Capturing moments and experiences for future generations.
• Documenting history: Recording events and cultural shifts.
• Providing valuable reference material: Offering information and guidance on various topics.
• Serving as public relations tools: Promoting individuals, businesses, and destinations.

Before I started my own magazine, I had to decide if I wanted to work alone or with a group. I chose to stay solo and work independently, I feel as if I have creative control over my own work, it feels more rewarding. While working alone may present challenges, I believe the independence will create a deeper sense of ownership and allow me to explore my creativity to the fullest, and be totally worth it in the end.
