FROM THE EDITOR PAGE 3 CREATIVE JUNCTION idea of online being forever. Paper disintegrates, but once something is online it can sit there in ‘cyber space’ for as long as it likes. Wow, what a crazy year! I would just like to thank each and everyone of you who have helped shape Creative Junction into what you see today.

I could create something that could go out to thousands without having the environmental impact of distribution. I also really liked the Sometimes we have to do print editions though. Sometimes it is nice to physically open a book, and you can hardly give out an online edition at markets and expos! When we do print we only print as many as needed, and we do it locally here in Whangarei- it’s our little way of keeping Northland perfect for the next generation to enjoy. This year was our first year in business, and you’ll notice a big increase in the amount of businesses that have come on board to support us. Every single one of these businesses have been approached by us because we believe in their service or product, every single one of these businesses are local businesses that share a positive vision for the future of Northland. Every single one of these businesses deserves your support, so please make an effort to like them on social media, share their business page and spread the word!
