Jason, what do you enjoy most about being in your current position as managing editor?
I'd say what I enjoy most is immersing myself into all the different styles of writing that my team submits. On that note, I enjoy looking elsewhere and outside of our team to fill the gaps that we don't cover.
That's the beauty of music and writing; music is constantly evolving, and everybody has their own voice. So, I could open up my MS and read something just crazy, wild, and new on any day of the week. I think that's the coolest part.
