A Word from the Publisher: 2014 Edition

By: Jacob Elyachar, jakes-take.com

Hello everyone!

First of all, I want to say “Thank You!” for making 2013 a terrific year.  Your support means the world to me.

I also want to give a special shout out to all of my interviewees! I am very thankful that you took time out of your busy schedules to talk to me.   I cannot wait to continue to work with each and every one of you in the future.

Here’s what happened in 2013:

Five Questions evolved into the Five Question Challenge. The goal of the Five Question Challenge is to show how interview subjects think on their feet and how they got into their respective fields.  I highly recommend that you take a look at my editions with the Buff Dudes, Shaping Sound Dance Company and celebrity chef Aaron McCargo, Jr.

A Conversation continued with exclusive in-depth interviews with some of the best talent on the planet.  Voice alums Amanda Brown & Chris Mann, AGT alum Branden James, choreographer-dancers Ivan Koumaev & Louis van Amstel and celebrity chef Spike Mendelsohn are among the superstars that sat down with me last year for A Conversation.

I was very fortunate to cover some pop culture and lifestyle events last year.  I am very thankful to Planet Comicon, the Variety Children’s Charity of Greater Kansas City, Kansas City Fashion Week, KMXV-FM Mix 93.3 and the WBFF (World Beauty Fitness & Fashion).
