Andy and Marcia leaving FoxTalk

Andy Kramek, one of our best FoxPro MVPs and one of the best writers has had an ongoing column in FoxTalk magazine since 1998. First co-authored with PAul Maskens (yes, the name is spelled that way "PAul". Fox oldtimers surely remember why), then written for the last few years with Marcia Akins , another great speaker and Fox MVP.

FoxTalk has been sold to a new publishing company which has more restrictive corporate rules. These changes make it harder for Andy and Marcia to write and keep their informal, dialog style. The fun has been taken out of the writing. As a past author in trade magazines, I can attest to what Andy says that there is very little money in it, not enough to justify the investment in time to write and publish. With the fun taken out, what is there left?

They had decided to move their column to Advisor Guide to Microsoft Visual Foxpro. Their win, Foxtalk's loss.

I'll keep reading them no matter where they are published as the "Kitbox" column is a gem.
