LETTER<br />

Welcome to the very late <strong>Fall</strong> <strong>Edition</strong> of<br />

<strong>Topteen</strong> magazine!<br />

I apologise for the delay in the release of<br />

this one – I had the issue built and ready<br />

for release late October, but things in my<br />

life took a turn I hadn't expected.<br />

For the past few years I have been<br />

struggling with some heart related<br />

problems. Things that we had been dealing<br />

with and keeping in control, but recently<br />

things have been become more serious<br />

and I have been focused on testing and<br />

meetings with my cardiologist. I have to<br />

admit that I put everything in my life on hold,<br />

including the publication. My emotional<br />

& physical challenges took me away from<br />

my passions and it has been a hard time<br />

coming back to it. I sincerely apologise to<br />

all the contributors and models featured<br />

in this issue and I hope you will still enjoy<br />

the magazine. Moving on, I really had fun<br />

putting this issue together and I hope you<br />

all like the look and style of the magazine.<br />

Included in this issue are some great<br />

interviews and features! I had the pleasure<br />

of meeting up with Sophia Lia for her cover<br />

variant feature. Seeing what she has<br />

created and where she is going with her<br />

publication, SophiaLia Mag is a great story.<br />

Along with Sophia I was also able to shoot<br />

with up and coming talent, <strong>Keaten</strong> <strong>Vale</strong>. His<br />

contribution to mental health advocacy<br />

are a welcome perspective in current times.<br />

Our International cover feature is Chloe<br />

Lang, an actress, model and influencer<br />

best known for her work in season 3 & 4 of<br />

Lazytown as Stephanie. It is an honour to<br />

include an exclusive interview with her.<br />

I hope all the featured teens in <strong>Topteen</strong><br />

will inspire you all to keep pushing forward<br />

and follow your dreams.<br />

Creative Director & Founder - <strong>Topteen</strong><br />
