What began as a challenging day turned out to be beautiful. I've been feeling hesitant about Thrill as a name for the magazine and even though changing it at this point would be absolutely illogical and stupid, I can't help but think that now is better than after the magazine has launched. I'd prefer a name that automatically embodies who I am but I suppose any company becomes a part of you soon enough. What do you all think? Honestly.
