Creating a year’s worth of magazines takes a lot of love, hard work, and planning. I usually telecommute, but once a year I travel to the Cricket Media editorial offices to participate in planning the ASK issues for the next year. The ASK team spends the day talking about what we’d like to see in next year’s issues: everybody comes with their top ten, and then we discuss until we have a consensus. It’s one of my favorite times of the year!
