Taking Five (Days)

Currently in the midst of the monthly drama that comes with production week at the magazine. Dealing with one cover star who would rather wear baladi than Beymen and another who appears to be blaming us for her inability to fit into the Zuhair Murad dresses our fabulous fashion director is proffering. In the mean time I’ve got five features to write – all of which I have (of course) left to the last minute, due to deluding myself that dinners at various locales across Cairo are in fact PR exercises and not procrastination. The point is - as is likely to happen around about this time every month - production week has put a bit of a spanner in the works of regular blogging business. But I will be back on the blog very soon! I thank you humbly for bearing with me and my skewed sense of importance.

  1. Amy, take the time, give us a FAB cover, FYI i did like the last one, because the out&about were less, and they were in the middle/towards the end, rather than in the beginning of the mag, which made the mag sort of have the feel of more substance
