what i wrote to NYLON:
My Dearest Darlings,
... I love you, but this madness has to stop.... what's with all the freaking mainstream celebs on your covers? I'm only 14 years old, but the first NYLON I bought was way back in 2004, the one with Jessica Miller on the cover... even though it's just some scraps of paper now, I still have it to this day! A few summers ago I visited your old offices with a group from creative writing summer camp... those days I turned to your magazine to learn about exciting things in music, fashion, art and movies...you introduced me to actresses like Maggie Gylenhaal, Ludivine Sagnier and lots of other cool people! Now, your magazine really isn't any different than a smutty tabloid in terms of who is on the cover....trust me, I never thought I'd see the day you'd feature Lindsay Lohan. Please know that I'm only doing this because I love you NYLON. Your great art direction always draws me in, but lately the contents of your magazine is really leaving me sour.
