Bride's Guide

I am officially done working on the BYU-Idaho's Bride's Guide magazine!! My job this semester is the editor in chief for the Bride's Guide magazine and the Winter Outdoor magazine. When I received this position, I have to admit, it was a little intimidating. I have never written for a real magazine or designed a layout for one. And to add to the stress, none of the editors who worked on the magazine in the past were on Scroll to help me along the way. I am grateful to Bre for coming in and giving me advice though.

I assigned a few classes to write some articles for the magazine, expecting to receive at least 20 articles... I got about 10. I enlisted in the help of many Scroll editors and friends and family. It's funny to see all the familiar faces within the magazine. Thanks to Kimberly, Bre, Brian Johnson and Carol Rhees for stepping up and writing their personal stories. And thanks to LeaDawn for sending me pictures in the last minute.

But, after working on the magazine for 70 hours in the past week, I am pleased to announce that we sent the 48 page magazine to the printers yesterday. It doesn't come out until November 12, so we'll all have to wait to see the final product but here is a sneak peek of what the front and back cover look like. I hope you like it.
