How to publish a magazine by Dannie Gao

"madly disorganized & learning as I go."

How I did it:

The very first issue took me 2 years to plan, 30 days to make. 

As a graphic designer worked 4+ years for major publishers I think I had some advantages in creating my own magazine.


However experienced i'm at working my 9-5, creating my own mag. is a totally insane venture -- the best advice I wished someone had told -- Pick an interest and start somewhere RIGHT NOW! 
I've wasted too many years in planning the perfect publication and once I finally started to test out the water all hell broke loose --- long story short I've learned to stop planning, just get the ball rolling & learn to work hard to improve what's missing:) 

plus learn from others, listen to lots of suggestions.
