Shoutout to
Trade Journal Cooperative, which curates and delivers a trade journal to their subscribers every quarter. I stopped reading the journals as closely, but I still read the cover letter every quarter, since 2020.
This comment is oddly reminiscent of the other "shout-out" to the journal:
"This is a great chance to give a shout-out to the Trade Journal Cooperative https://www.tradejournalcooperative com/ -- not web sites, but it actually delivers paper magazines from interesting industry verticals. Everything from bowling alleys to semiconductors. Also, the covering letter from the editor is wryly observed and usually witty." https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34096833
No. I am a subscriber to the Coop, and I am not ewilderj. There’s not much else to say about it. It’s like $15, and you get a stamped manila envelope filled with a cover letter explaining the choice of the quarter and a magazine.
All journals were postmarked after the season they are labeled with. e.g. “Fall 2023” was signed by Tim on December 2, 2023, “December 2023” was from March 6, 2023.
