So Kelsey Publishing (who do modern mini) has anounced today that it has taken over the running of MiniWorld.


I am writing to inform you that as of today IPC Media will no longer be publishing MiniWorld magazine. The magazine has been sold to Kelsey Publishing.

The last issue published under IPC will be the December 2010 issue.

The MiniWorld team will now be based at the following address:

Kelsey Publishing Ltd
Cudham Tithe Barn
Berrys Hill
Cudham
TN16 3AG
01959 541444

The editorial contact at Kelsey is Phil Weeden, his email address is: phil.weeden@kelseypb.co.uk

Kara Goodwin, deputy advertising manager, has transferred across with the title, her new email address is: kara.goodwin@kelseypb.co.uk

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all the support you have given MiniWorld while I have been associated with it over the past 15 years and wish both you and Kelsey every success for the future.

Yours faithfully

Richard Marcroft
Publisher
IPC Media

I still buy both mags. I recently tried writing for Mini Magazine, using Jeff Ruggles as the middle man . I submitted an article to the editor and haven't had a sausage back , not even a rejection message. Fortunately I'm not bothered If they don't want my offerings as I don't have to write for a living. But I thought it would have been courteous in a polite way to at least tell me to go and boil my head. I like the way that in the past both magazines have employed individuals who are having intimate physical relations with senior editorial staff , not mentioning any names , but it helps pay the household bills each week.
Also my other gripe with the mags is that they take money from advertisers who are cowboys , offering sub-standard products and services , and giving them further publicity in various articles.
