Living Planet Newsletter
Living Planet Newsletter
During the Raw Experience restaurant we decided to self publish, “The Raw Truth” recipe book. We formed a publishing company called Raw Truth Press through the help of a friend’s copy shop. Aside from creating all of the media and marketing materials for both the restaurant and the book we began to create a newsletter. Christopher “Shawa” Abrahms, a most helpful apprentice, had some previous experience doing presswork. Since the raw food concept was so new to most of the world we wanted to get the word out to people and figured a newsletter to be a great outlet. We distributed the first few hundred copies of the first issue thru the restaurant. Suzie Bohannon joined us in 1997 with a thirst for journalism and writing. The newsletter now entitled; “The Living Planet” grew from 4 pages into 16-pages. The newsletter developed and many authors contributed articles and stories to help educate people and promote fasting, raw food, fruit, jungle living and much more. Sometime after issue 13 things shifted. The copy shop closed therefore limiting our access to publishing resources, then the restaurant closed ending its distribution.
