Letter From The Founder

Thanks to everyone who viewed my very first issue of Talented. I thoroughly enjoyed creating the magazine and I hope you enjoyed it as much I did creating it for you. In this issue I wanted to focus more on the core of entertainment the ingenious minds and people behind what makes music. I believe it’s beneficial to the artist as well as the fans of the artist to really get to know what that artist or other talented individual is behind closed doors. Talented is a avenue, a gateway or a direct line to your favorite talented person or it let’s you discover a talent you never knew existed. Everyone is talented believe it or not; the key is discovering the talent that lies inside of you. Many people believe that talent is only for musicians and athletes but people couldn’t be more wrong. Talented is that chef that created a signature dish that melts in your mouth, Talented is

that tap dancer with magic feet, Talented is that artist that aspires to be the next Michelangelo and that's the beauty behind my magazine. I wanted to help those individuals that just can’t get out of the shadows move a little closer to the lime light and don’t think for a second that talented is only for adults. It’s for ages 8 to 80 it’s for big, small, and tall people I had a vision years ago to help those people who didn’t or don’t have the resources I’ve had. I believe not lending a hand when one is needed is a common problem we have with successful people throughout the world. If the upper echelon of talented individuals doesn’t reach out to help those who are not as successful how can the world become a better place? Talented people make the world go around believe it or not how many times have you been down and turned on the TV to watch a talented comedian to cheer you up. Almost everything you like on or off TV was created by someone who has a talent like none other and that person wanted you to enjoy it just as much as they did which is the premise behind Talented. Again, I hope everyone enjoyed the first issue, here is the second issue thanks for all your support and happy reading.
