Chatting with The Rue Girls Crystal Gentilello and Anne Sage

Posted by on
 
Rue Magazine's Winter 2011 issue featuring singer Ali Sudol of A Fine Frenzy launches on January 27th!

This week, we sat down with Crystal Gentilello and Anne Sage, popularly known at "The Rue Girls" to chat about their popular new digital magazine Rue. The next issue launches this week and we were excited to have a chance to dig into the world of large scale digital magazines and how they made it work. And Crystal and Anne were incredibly generous sharing their back stories and the fine details of how they make it all work!

Crystal Gentilello of Plush Palate

Rue Magazine's photography and editorial is consistently excellent:


Note: We had some technical difficulties the evening we spoke and ended up speaking with Anne and Crystal one at a time for the first part of the interview and luckily we were able to get them both on together for the second part. We lost Crystal right at the end.

P.S. to the Great Skirted Ones: Y'all's work remains original, one-of-a-kind, and a major breath of fresh air. And, you are getting better and better at it.

This is all really a whole new world for me! I have subscribed to few digital magazines and it was just so worth the while!

This rue magazine looks very interesting.

Nice girls, nice cover, nice photographs!

Good luck!

I've "talked" with Anne a couple of times and she's the sweeties and smartest girl in this business. She's really special and I see why she's successful.

Great post!

Very much love that SRT has the Rue Girls on the heels of, for example, David Easton; wonderful mix and all about quality. This was very informative and motivating; look forward to much more good stuff from this duo~
