About BUST: BUST is a groundbreaking women’s lifestyle magazine that is unique in its ability to connect with bright, cutting-edge young women. With an attitude that is fierce, funny, and proud to be female, BUST’s revolutionary editorial mix addresses a refreshing variety of women’s interests, including pop culture, crafting, fashion, sex, news, and celebrity interviews. Hip, humorous, and honest, BUST is a cheeky celebration of all things female and a trusted authority on up-and-coming trends among young women. Frustrated by the lack of variety in women’s publications, Debbie Stoller, who holds a PhD in the Psychology of Women from Yale and has a background in television, and Laurie Henzel, a designer with a BFA in Communication Design from Parsons and a background in magazine and album design, launched BUST as a labor of love in 1993. The magazine instantly became an indie favorite among in-the-know young women, a well-kept secret that dared to tell the truth about women’s lives in a way no other women’s magazine ever had. Brash, bold, and downright ballsy, BUST made a name for itself and gained fans among some of the most influential cultural icons of the time. In 2000, the independently owned magazine went above ground as a glossy quarterly, and today, BUST is a bimonthly publication that inspires readers to bust stereotypes and fearlessly live their own way. Truly in a class by itself, BUST has earned a devoted following of young women who return issue after issue for the kind of candid personal stories, in-depth reported pieces, humorous essays, news items, pop culture coverage, and do-it-yourself crafting ideas they know they can’t find anywhere else.

Hi Darlings,
I stumbled across your page in my aimless wondering to find writers like myself.
I was wondering if you could foster this newbie as I wade through the process of doing what I love: writing a good story that curls a toe or two.
I write a blog called Illicitations on the Blogger site. Please come by and tell me what you think.
That’s http://illicitations.blogspot.com/
Enjoy!
