It seems there was a Plus Size Readers Choice Awards going on and our magazine didn't make the cut. Yes, you heard correctly I do not stutter. It took me a minute to digest what I was looking at the three main brands that made it are:
Plus Model Magazine (my choice..of course)
Skorch ( I thought they had died and gone to 'curvy' mag heaven)
Madison Plus ( Hello! They are a 'blog' not a magazine)
Here I am looking for the box with the name 'Daily Venus Diva Magazine'..not there. First I want to say that the creator of this Ms. Meieli Sawyer is brilliant and I am in her debt for life for creating this award that celebrates so many in the plus size industry. She really has a good thing here and I want this nomination to last for years to come. I just wish that as she created this and delivered a PRESS RELEASE on this that US as plus size women and professionals would have spread the news world wide. I am upset and when I think of how hard our editor, Stephanie works over this magazine to give us everything about the curvy world it just makes me sigh with pain. I guess I was upset for five minutes and then my facebook inbox started to blow up with messages. All of our loyal readers and loving fans were heated. Why isn't Venus nominated? We didn't know of this contest! Why didn't Venus post this on the facebook page? I stopped counting the messages an hour ago and I have 62! My facebook page has lite up with beautiful comments on our Venus and that is when I started smiling again. We are on a class of our own! But don't be fooled by my calm body language. Next year it is ON! Team 'DVD' is going global and everyone that reads our magazine will be informed by me the minute the contest goes live.
Now..the only issue I have is why Plus Model Magazine is not on top! This magazine is about fashion, on a big girl, written by a big girl for the world to see. The energy that goes into just shooting that cover is enough to make an entire football team tired for a few days. The content is real, accurate and in your face. You have top notch designers speaking about their fashion designs. Last but not least please don't forget about 'Plus Model Blog'. That is a sassy and so amazing to read blog so we are getting two hard to top fashion views. So get off your ass..and start voting.
Many of you have been featured in this magazine..let's make this happen.
Go team 'Plus Model Magazine'.
