Shuey Wolfe, Moto Journo

Started to flip through the spring issue of Iron Butt magazine and saw our own Shuey Wolfe gracing the pages with his comprehensive story about FJR farkling. If you've seen his FJR in person, you understand "comprehensive."

Nicely done!

Really interesting process getting something published . . . submit, get response, rewrite, edit, submit . . . repeat, argue in favor of a point being made or unique phrasing . . . submit, accept, thank editor profusely for all the help. It gets easier with experience Bones, right?

I saw that a few days ago when I got my issue. Nice write-up Shuey.

On my desk. Plan to read at lunch today.

Experience does help. Let me suggest one step prior to Submit. Query. Get in touch with the editor and ask what he needs.

With a published story in to your name, now you have a better idea of an editor needs. That should help next time you have a story to tell.

Cool, congrats Shuey.

Got my copy yesterday and went straight to the article . Great article Shuey.

I just received my copy a few days ago. Great article Shuey, and very well set up FJR!

Thanks all for the kind comments! The process was much more labor intensive than I imagined when asked to write the article, but . . . always up for a challenge. All-in-all it was a very satisfying experience thanks to the support of the IBA Mag staff who delivered on their promise to make me "look good."

Good stuff Shuey!

Is there anyplace on the web for us non Iron Butt Magazine subscribers to get a looksee? (Please, no copyright violations are suggested!)

ST_Jim or others,

You can subscribe to the iron butt mag at http://www.ironbuttrecords.com or http://www.ibaestore.com
Everyone has their own personal definition of value and I respect that, but I consider the $20/year for the 4 issues of this mag well worth the money. It is a really good mag IMHO. And no, I don't get commission for magazine sales, I just usually read it cover to cover.

Shuey's article is a great read and full of valuable farkle ideas. I have had the opportunity to meet him in two different long distance rallies. He is a great rally rider, motorcyclist, and an overall genuinely nice guy.
