A busy editor indeed!
The editor was really busy the whole day. Started the day off by going to The Lion's room to give the stories that the reporters had turned in. As usual, he dismissed it as a "bunch of nonsense." Further, for the first time, he actually went on to discuss some stories in class and explained what was lacking in them.
So much for "amoeba" reporters...
Then came the sub-editors. A million walks into his office left the Lion frustrated. He screamed at me, "Hey listen I just don't want you coming here every second. Finish all the damn work, and come back."
Well, the initial 'damn' extra work that he gave my three sub-editors was cruel. And, to end our efforts with a wave of his hand left us all, especially me, frustrated.
Being an editor here is tough. Real tough. Yet, it's fun.

Hello Mighty Editor!
Looks like you're living it up in Mallu land. Good practise to blog so frequently. There's something to look forward to.
Looks like your magazine is some highly professional thingy. Can you mail me a soft copy? Just curious.
