[quote user="IRONROOSTER"] I don't think too many people submit layout articles to MR until they fell they have reached some level of completeness and detail.  And I see no reason for MR to not use the best ones they get.  But I also suspect they are having trouble getting articles from new authors. I think that's the reason behind the layout contests they have had.  And currently they are running a contest for articles on just doing a single scene.  Looks to me like MR is really trying to get some new folks writing for them.EnjoyPaul [/quote] See I disagree because the MR mag consist mainly of a circle of contributors who know one another over and over.  Does anyone else notice when they read the articles of the layouts the author more than likely is linked to another regular character?  Which reminds me of 6 degrees of separation but these people are usually 3 degrees at most separated from editors and publishers of the magazine.  Its really sad that new comers have no chance to make it in the mag.  Well that is a typical business though.  Cops hire other family and friends, firefighters do the same, actors and actress' family get in due to the connection and I guess that is just how the world is.
