Have We Created A Cover Too Sexy for Our Readership?

 January 14, 2025

   If you want an old school look at the Old West stream The Searchers. If you want to see an extension of The Revenant where Hugh Glass fought a grizzly bear, watch the first episode of American Primeval on Netflix. Lots of my peeps are talking about it.

Daily Whip Out: "Evil In His Prime"

   It's no surprise this new series was penned by the guy who wrote The Revenant.

   Meanwhile, closer to home. . .

A Cover Too Sexy for Our Readership?

   Dan The Man and I came up with this bold little cover concept yesterday. . .

   Dan and I love it, but our sales staff and the publisher are bridling over the overt sexiness of the message and they are afraid it doesn't say "Travel." It is, in fact, our "Travel" issue.

   Gee I wonder what a certain Mamacita—I know and respect—has to say about this?

"I would say I agree with your sales staff.  Also, when one gets anxious to make sales, one turns to SEX and the sordid for attention.  TW does not have to do that nor would you want to go there with such glaring headlines and even use of the word ‘sordid’.  Many people love the lady and the Earps so why offend them?  Unnecessarily?   A Travel issue is supposed to capture travel, wide open spaces, special places and not the bedroom."
