For a long while, I thought BIC wasn't worth publishing in. Several things led to this view. First, I had read several things in it, and so much of it was "inside baseball" and shallow. Also, many of the leaders I worked for thought it was too "People-Magazine-esque."
That view changed for several reasons. First, I felt that "inside baseball" is okay. That's the point of the periodical. That's its niche. That's the market. It's trying to publish and play to its specific market.
Secondly, I felt that if the material was too much on the "light side," well, maybe it's on me to try and change that? So, I've set out to do that.
Third, my good friend and former colleague is now working there.
These in my view are all GREAT reasons to publish with BIC more, not less. So, expect more. I think this is my third article with BIC. I have another slated for August. Looking forward to more.
