Following a meeting convened by the FONCA magífica had the opportunity to meet with the editors of independent magazines had the support "Edmundo Valadés." Many issues were discussed at that meeting, among whom he spoke about the wild lands we travel at conception and bring to light a project of this nature. Literal
, over the next few days, will be talking with each of them to establish a dialogue and measure what they are thinking and doing today on issues that are supported not only by the energy and ideals of group that produces them. We started with the magazine

Director of the magazine 3D2
What does editing in Mexico when the statistics do not report a high rate of reading in our country? 3D2
: Edit in Mexico, is a symbolic way of building knowledge. Creating inviting disseminating different content areas and literary and scientific streams.
Thus, the data that appears following the survey of the cultural customs in Mexico where he finds a lack of reading. One thing, that as publishers we are invited to work on it.
is said that independent publishers are the habitat of Mexican letters yet, the work of the editor is very little recognition. What do you attribute this disparity between the effort expended and little reward received?
3D2: image editor goes hand in hand to the office of the promoter. A visionary decision-making capacity, is disclosed and no. A profession, as such, lacks both social and academic recognition. Devoid of identity and respect, the editor becomes a creator, and as such, work and work, unfortunately with a minimum wage in the economy, gains in other forms of capital, cultural, symbolic or knowledge.
Is training in this regard is appropriate, set up and legitimize the field is a priority. Attempts exist, proposals are emerging. So much, but it will do something, step by step.
What is your perspective on the e books and internet? How do you think they affect your work as editor?
3D2: Fanzine From the work of 3D2 think not affect the work of the editor. Instead, they are other scenarios of connection between the editor and reader. The important thing is the ability to create and adapt to new platforms for the dissemination of content. Hence the digital space for more open public perspective possible.
has been much speculation about the final paper, printed product. Do you think that the website was able to move to physical books and magazines?
Evolution is relevant. We know of no examples to date where the paper is moved by the digital space. It may be, may not be. Both forms can coexist. Is it possible? For now, do not know. ***
Carlos Vicente Castro
Director of Metropolis magazine
means edit in Mexico when the statistics do not report a large readership in our country?
What Metropolis: involves the challenge of finding ever more effective ways to promote reading.
is said that independent publishers are the habitat of Mexican literature, but also the work of the editor is very little recognition. What do you attribute this disparity between the effort expended and little reward received?
Metropolis: The biggest challenge facing the editor is the assessment of their work within their own environment. It is often recognized more who directly raise capital and not those that make up a project and carry it out.
What is your perspective on e-books and the Internet? How do you think affect your work as an editor?
Metropolis: U No good editor used to favor the new roads.
has been much speculation about the end of the paper. Do you think that the website was able to move to physical books and magazines?
Metropolis: Until now, electronic and physical means have been complementary: a lead to others. If the disappearing social need should be printed on paper give thanks for the good fortune of trees and adapt to new techniques.
