It takes a lot to be successful in life. Time, opportunities, hard work and recognition could get you up there among the best, but it takes a special kind of person to make the cover of magazine(s).
What is even more amazing is that only a few American magazines prominently feature “outsiders” on their covers, let alone their stories, which is what makes SAJA’s collection so very impressive.
For my fellow bloggers who are not aware of SAJA, please take a look at Anantha’s coverage of their Annual conference. I managed to miss it this year because of a last minute medical situation that needed more attention, but I am already planning on making it next year. Besides, they have a mailing list that goes out as soon as someone spots a South Asian story, as a blogger, they are like your own little South Asian google alerter
.
The good folks over at SAJA have collected South Asian covers and they have added their hundredth cover.
If you do find a magazine cover not featured in there, contact them and get them to add it to their collection. You never know when we might need it. And if you are a blogger interested in networking and knowing more about the South Asian media coverage, get yourself on their mailing list and start packing your bags for SAJA 08.
For the trivia lovers, we have some from Sree’s email after the jump.
