Agreed - at this point, they must have lost a lot with large players having left and it's time for them to see over next few years what kind of readership their current writers bring in. It's entirely a numbers game and sure - they are here to make money.

Love your writing Mick - whether you're in the program or not, and I value that you share that with us as well as your friendship: priceless!

Have a wonderful week ahead!
