Re: Better Homes and Gardens Special Interest Publications-PERE...

[Robt R Pries <rpries@sbcglobal.net>]

Special note should be made that Better Homes and
Garden has regional publications and special
publications all with different editors. One problem I
experienced was not knowing exactly which publication
the ensata article was going into. Without that it was
very hard to figure out exactly where it would appear.
Many of the so-called national magazines actually are
different for different regions of the country.
