Well, not to toot our own horn too much, but today was an exciting day in the office. The finalists were announced for the City and Regional Magazine Association’s annual awards (the Oscars for city mags), and Atlanta magazine was nominated eleven times in ten different categories:
Food or Dining Writing — Bill Addison
Personality Profile — Justin Heckert for “Her Own Flesh and Blood”
Feature Story — Justin Heckert for “The Town That Blew Away”
Writer of the Year — Justin Heckert; and our new senior editor Tony Rehagen also scored a nom for this award, but only for his work at Indy Monthly (so we can’t take credit)
