LETTER FROM THE EDITOR: I’ll Take: Staying in New York during the holidays for $500, Alex.

It’s that time of year. Pumpkin everything, parades, gift nightmares, travel woes, and family drama. Have I covered it all? Not likely but you get the point. Me, I stick it out here in NYC. Anyone who runs a business, retail or not, knows that this is one of the busier times of the year. Sales this, savings that, charge now/pay later and the like. With that being said, KARJAKA is running full force with all of that and more, no doubt you’ll catch a few advertisements in this edition.

SAVINGS HAPPENING NOW!

And while I can’t be at home eating that darling bird while bickering with the relatives, I can bring a small slice of it here as a dessert to your soon to be tryptophan coma. While on the home front feast your eyes on musical revelations, style and art inquiry, health and digestion for that bird of yours, boozy internet bingeing, soft facades, and lest we forget fair Juliet as she dines waiting for her plump Romeo.

Gobble Gobble!

Letter from the Editor: Zen and the Art of Creative-ing

The First 10 years, no camera, just observation. Take it all in, there's a lot. Sitting in the West Village with some dear friends over a perspiring cocktail giving my life story, I lamented over my training as a classical musician and here I am building out this visual brand/empire of sorts, waxing of how the industry has changed so much in 20 years. Jay glances up at me with a small smirk and soft chuckle, "You're a creative." Period. Full stop. No explanation, no breakdown of how or why, just a passing moment and a glance as if to say, "This is who you are, you're lucky, move on." We did, and took another sip.
