Behind the Scenes at D Magazine (With Apologies to Sam Wyly)

The roach that curled up and died on Sam Wyly's book.
             Â

Just had a quick meeting with my boss, the great Glenn Hunter, and something in the corner of his office caught my eye. Atop the pile of business bios was Sam Wyly‘s 1,000 Dollars and an Idea, and atop Wyly’s bio was our office mascot (pictured). I shrieked, Hunter shrugged (I think he said “It’s been there a couple of days. Sorry.”).

Now, maybe I was naïve when I decided to leave newspapers for the glamorous world of magazine publishing, but I never thought roaches would be commonplace. Hopefully the roaches won’t follow us to our new digs downtown. That reminds me: Want to intern at D Magazine this fall? Click my name below and send your resume. Previous experience with roaches is not required.
