A sign of the economic times or a sign of the dying print media? Hard to say, but Times, Inc. is laying off 6% of its workforce which equals about 600 employees. Time Inc. owns over 24 national magazines and will re-organize those titles into three sections: news, lifestyle and entertainment. I was surprised at all the titles within the Time Inc. umbrella: Fortune, Money, Time, Sports Illustrated, Golf, Health, Essence, Real Simple, Cottage Living, Coastal Living, Southern Accents, Southern Living, Cooking Light, People, InStyle and Entertainment Weekly.
There's a lot of overlap there, if you ask me.

Reader Troy sent me the link to Nora Roberts’ 10 Questions, but it was on Sunday and I forgot about it until I say that SB Sarah blogged about it. So thank you Troy. Sorry that I suck and forgot to post.
Nora Roberts is identified as one of the Times 100 Most Influential Artists and Entertainers.
At 56, she makes her fellow authors look like slackers, having written 175 novels, the majority of them best sellers.
Congratulations, Ms. Roberts. You were listed right after Leonardo Di Caprio. Not a bad place to be. Keep working on that global domination plan of yours.
