That’s right; that’s all you get. Tomorrow is the release of the NEW RE-BRAND of Mankind Mag, and I am SO SO excited! Seriously. Thrilled.
We have tons more content [over 50 pages worth!], TONS more talent, and most of all— some really fascinating and creative individuals. To release the shiny, new look of Mankind Mag, we’ve got a shiny, new media kit for all of you artists who want to be involved! Email me for rates/guidelines.
ALSO— a few housekeeping notes. This was a really big decision for me, and I have a feeling I may get some hate mail for it, BUT… I can no longer afford to keep downloads free for Mankind Mag. Truth be told, advertising is dwindling as many of us are in the midst of a struggling economy, and without funds from advertisers, I can’t proceed to exist. So, my hope is that you’ll understand tomorrow when you see that the new Mankind Mag issue will be $1.99. A sneak peek will be offered on Issuu for those who want to peruse before you purchase, but I think you’ll all be quite pleased with the mag, with or without the additional charge.
In addition, Mankind Mag will still be offered in print, but by request only.
Please bear with me as the new transition takes place, and I can’t thank you enough for all of your support thus far. AND, I can’t end this post without thanking my new Mankind Mag team of contributors– there is such talent amidst the pages of this next issue and I truly can’t wait for you to devour it!
Thank you SO much, everyone. I’ll see you tomorrow bright and early with the NEW Mankind Mag!
I am so excited to see the new magazine and format. I think $1.99 is very fair and I am happy to pay it to see this wonderful publication! :)
Can’t wait to see it! There is no way you should get hate mail for $1.99!!!
i can’t wait! and, it’s a good thing you didn’t charge $2 because then i would have sent you hate mail ;).
Yay – so exciting!!
congrats on your new adventure!

50 pages!? I can hardly wait!!! AND I’VE GOT $2!!! I think tomorrow is going to be my lucky day.
That price is more than fair. I can’t wait to see your hard work!
can’t wait until tomorrow! i may have to stop at a rest stop to check my e-mail since i’ll be driving all day…
Looking forward to it Erin.
Awww, congrats! Mankind Mag for less than a latte is a steal :)
50 pages! sounds ggrrreat! As soon as I make any money I’ll know where to spend it (I sure understand you can’t keep giving it away). For now I’ll have to save up those pennies for new socks (really)
So proud of you for accomplishing yet another issue. I can’t believe it’s fifty pages, too! You are a true rock star:)
Hello Erin! You’ll have to forgive for not reading this issue, money is tight for me too until I finish my thesis and every dollar counts :(
But, on a happier note, congrats on getting it done, I’m sure it is fabulous and you are a real star!
Happy new year to you my dear :)
if anyone sends you a hate letter for a $1.99fee for your gorgeous art magazine…I’ll beat them up!!
oooo how exciting! I always thought it was very very generous of you to share DFM for free online. I think $1.99 is reasonable for a bit of Erin inspiration!
oh thank you SO SO much!!! i can’t wait for you to see it! :)
oh wow!! it looks awesome even with those little snippets =) can’t wait
Good for you…And $2 is a deal!
Please! Everyone will happily pay- its fantastic, Miss Erin!
