Kerry Thomas - Fused magazine talk

We had Kerry Thomas a magazine publisher come to speak to us about how she created the magazine Fused. We were able to ask her some questions.
What motivates you?
I get a lot of free stuff, get taken to nice places and have my own independance.
How do you manage financially?
Sales are not a problem, I don't have a huge amount of money but am comfortable, I don't hate my job so don't mind this.
Do you take on work experience?
Yes in different areas mainly writing, trend forcasting, people can take on different roles. I like it when people apply that they have made the effort to find out my name.
Can you see yourself doing this job for years?
I don't know I might hand the magazine over, I have already handed most editorial stuff over and become more involved in events, I am currently working on a music event.
How much do people pay for ad space?
From £250-£10,000
Do you refuse any advertisers?
We have had art work we don't like and have refused but if it fits the magazine we accept.
Is the magazine different in each country?
No it's the same, people buy into British culture. We only sell a couple of magazines in each shop and we also sell online.
