New Magazine on Organization


posted by: Patrice Fagnant-MacArthur

A fellow Massachusetts mom has started a magazine devoted solely to Organization. The copy that follows is from "Organize" Magazine's website: www.organizemag.com 

 

Organize is the brainchild of Joyce Dorny, the magazine’s founder and editor-in-chief. As a busy mother of six, Joyce has had ample opportunity to develop a knack for organizing both people and places. In creating Organize, she has taken what she learned from her real life experience and the knowledge she gained working for storage and organization retailers and turned those skills into a profession. A member of the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) with her own organization consulting practice, Joyce is passionate about organizing and is especially passionate about the need for, and service provided by, Organize magazine.

Organize is the first lifestyle magazine dedicated solely to helping people find practical, doable organizing solutions for their home, work and self.

According to the National Association of Professional Organizers:

  • 80 percent of the clutter in most homes is a result of disorganization,
    not a lack of space.
  • 50 percent of homeowners say their garage is the most disorganized
    place in their house.
  • 80 percent of what people file away for safekeeping never gets looked at again.
  • 40 percent of housework can be eliminated by getting rid of clutter.

But Organize is more than just a magazine about organizing “stuff.” It’s a magazine that serves as a lifestyle management tool with information, ideas and advice about such subjects as time management, personal goals, relationships, and the many emotional and psychological issues that relate to how people behave and interact with their surroundings. The magazine’s mix of reported articles, personal essays, expert advice and visually informative how-to guides are geared toward our diverse readership, which runs the gamut from singles living in small spaces to families juggling houses and kids to empty nesters trying to scale back and, ideally, relax a bit more.

It’s our mission to provide readers with organizing solutions for living. 

 






Patrice, thanks for sharing this very helpful information.  I think I need to subscribe to this one!  I've posted your post at my P@H blog at http://productivityathome.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/03/new-organizing.html

Thanks again!

Lisa
