YOU (South Africa)

FABULOUS FICTION

-

I’ve never missed a copy of YOU magazine and always read it from cover to cover. I was happily employed in a high-pressure, deadline-oriented job until I regretfull­y retired in December last year, but due to time constraint­s I tended to give the fiction pages a miss, vowing to catch up on reading all the stories as soon as time permitted.

Over the festive period, with so much time on my hands and with no recourse to public libraries, I settled down with many years’ worth of back issues and read every story. What bliss!

I then advertised online, offering my magazines to the first person who wanted them, and was immediatel­y contacted by a woman whose son loves the mag, especially Young You. Before I could blink they were driving away with the back seat of their car piled to the roof with hundreds of copies of YOU. A WORTHY CAUSE, EMAIL
