Annie's article is quite enraging (I know I felt rotten thinking that a publication was fleecing designers like that) but after conversing over email with someone from the company (who was quite friendly and forthcoming) I was a little ashamed at Jolenehttp://www.jobodesigns.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2238235065984655424.post-80768752818789874522009-10-07T12:14:03.823-04:002009-10-07T12:14:03.823-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07747353589809522762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2238235065984655424.post-45716399378097210182009-10-07T12:12:01.379-04:002009-10-07T12:12:01.379-04:00Thanks Jolene,
Thanks for your interest in this t...Thanks Jolene,<br /><br />Thanks for your interest in this topic. Really though, if the average fee was between 500-1000, I'd be really, really, really happy. In my experience it's much, much lower. I think knit designers get paid more, and definitely some magazines pay better than others.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07747353589809522762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2238235065984655424.post-43540301406092284052009-10-07T10:46:59.992-04:002009-10-07T10:46:59.992-04:00I think her information might be a bit skewed thou...I think her information might be a bit skewed though...

There are different arrangements for written Jolenehttp://www.jobodesigns.comnoreply@blogger.com
