I’ve contributed articles and essays to a few magazines over time, most recently as an essayist for RealScreen. With their lead times, magazines don’t always provide the immediacy of the web. But there’s something flawless about the form: the depth of the articles contrasted with the compact, portable form; the texture of the thin, slightly glossy paper; the way a magazine fits in your hand.
