Magazine market dropping the use of cartoons
Last week came news of several papers in the alt-newspaper market that were temporarily suspending buying syndicated cartoons. Mike Lynch reports that several magazines have stopped buying cartoons, reduced their payout or started buying Cartoonbank cartoons. Specifically he mentions First for Women, Good Housekeeping, Time Magazine and Woman’s World as having made major changes to their cartoon buying selection.

Mr. Gardner I presume,
Years ago I was a member of the AAEC, doing cartooning for some smaller papers in the San Joaguin Valley.
Always had a desire to try my hand at mag cartooning but never met with any success, started painting.
If I wanted to try and resubmit to both mags and papers, would you suggest how I might redouble my efforts as I dont really know who still seeks cartoons any longer. I guess I cvould contact cartoonist profiles periodical if its still in print and maybe contact pres of AAEC. Any other ideas? Thanks Burr
