Mostly Books Meets...11 Maalis 2021

Ed Needham

This week, we’re speaking to the editor of Strong Words magazine, Ed Needham. Ed is a veteran of magazines in the UK and US. In the 1990’s, he edited the massively popular, FHM before moving to New York to launch and edit the same title. Later, he would go on to become managing editor of Rolling Stone magazine and editor-in-chief of US Maxim, which, at that point, was the biggest-selling men’s magazine in the world. In 2018, Ed decided to combine his experience with his passion for books and created a brand new magazine called Strong Words. Written and edited by the man himself, the magazine is packed full of interviews, news, and reviews – there are over 100 books featured in each issue. Elizabeth Day says the magazine is ‘Genius’ and Sebastian Faulks calls it ‘A Must Read’. With nine publications a year, the magazine is perfect for any bookworm. --- Books mentioned in this episode: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S.
