Just wondering will the outbreak affect our subscriptions to Scale Auto and FSM?
printing and delivery may well be effected. all our mail sits now unopened for 2 days, then gets wiped down with alcohol wipes then nuked in microwave then opened with gloves on and envelopes promptly disposed of.
I emailed Aaron a few days ago, and he said they were in good shape. I suspected as such, as I know another model magazine based in Wisconsin many years ago did most of the work via telecommunications, and I know Kalmbach is well set up in technology. And the printing industry in general was one of the leading industries adopting computer operations.
I got my copy in the mail yesterday
Local mail delivery could be an issue if your local post office is experiencing personnel outage problems too.
I also subscribe to the UK magazine “Model Boats”. I got a note from them last week saying that the May issue, which just came out, will be the last for a while. They are putting the magazine on hold for a few months, because their newsstand (W.H.Smith) sales are gone. The publisher also cut the budget for author payments by 2/3.
I’m really hoping they can weather the storm…
