The staff at Sassy had impeccable instincts for building its community -- and in the days when doing so required going to the post office to put actual paper goods in the actual mail, too -- and there's no better proof of their success than its first-ever reader-produced issue. The proof that some 80+ real readers made the issue happen is that...you know, the photos are kind of dark. Also that a lead feature about parents doing cocaine and the effect of their drug use on their 10-year-old son showing a few more gaps than we typically like to see in a piece purporting to be factual. But is the nitpicking by at least one of your co-hosts due in large part to the fact that she's jealous of all her then-peers who, unlike her, WEREN'T too scared to apply? Yes, yes it is. The readers bring us all the usual departments, plus a new one (Green Gossip) and the return of On The Road and a super-sized Stuff WE Wrote: join us as we leap in to the Teen Life topics of the December 1990 issue!
