Things have been busy here at 3-Point Ink headquarters as usual. I finally caved in and hired an assistant to help at the Nokomis office 3 days a week. Erika comes from a farm background and in a short time has already whipped this office into shape. She has permission to give me orders because someone needs to.
Both Oliver Heritage and Heritage Iron are in the mail for the month so we're feeling a little bit of relief but it won't last long. The deadlines creep up quick. Heritage Iron was a fun issue to write this time because it finally has a Meadow Green model on it. It's our 6th issue, which means we have survived the first year. Yeeha! Time for a celebration!
It's harvest time but in the area, it's going to be a very late one. Farmers are chomping at the bit but the late spring and heavy rains in this area have them in the hold mode.
I have to share a little humor. Since I moved the office to the main street in downtown Nokomis, I put up a nice sign out from with a colorful "Brutus" picture and our 3-Point Ink logo. For whatever reason, the locals now thing I'm running a tattoo parlor! Oh the things you can hear sitting close to the coffee drinkers table in a small town.
Heritage Iron is really taking off and after one year, it has passed Oliver Heritage in subscriptions and that magazine is now 6 years old. And much to my surprise, Oliver Heritage still continues to grow. Guess we must be doing something right. I love this job!
