PORTLAND, Maine — Issue 6, or Sixer, as it’s been fondly named in the offi ce, is ready for the masses. This issue marks the second issue in the second year of production for N’East ??“ an accomplishment in itself.

“Going strong into our second year is somewhat surreal,” says Jim McGinley, publisher. “Magazines are a tough go ??“ and a niche lifestyle magazine with our production value and costs is even tougher. Our relative success in this arena is due to the hard work of everyone here, the patience and talent of our editorial contributors who have long put up with a grass-roots campaign, and our sponsors and readers keeping the lights on.”

UPCOMING
