Interview With Kate Bezar Creator of Dumbo Feather, Pass it on.


Following my short article of Dumbo Feather, Pass it on, that i’d found at the Design Market
Comes an excerpt from the interview with Kate Bezar via theDesignfiles.net

Well loved Dumbo Feather Library

Well-loved Dumbo feather library

I get the feeling Kate Bezar is a bit of a dynamo.

It’s not just the incredible success she’s had with her stunning independent publication Dumbo feather in a fiercely competitive market….. (a magazine she started single-handedly five years ago and with no journalism experience, mind you). No, mainly, it’s the fact that just a few seconds of googling brings up so many varied accolades and creative collaborations that I begin to wonder if there might be 25 Kate Bezars.

But no, there’s only 1. And she’s here, here, here and even here.

And of course, she’s here! [thedesignfiles.net] Read on for an insight into the inspiring world of ‘editor, publisher & dreamer’, Kate Bezar. Thanks so much for your time Kate!”

Thedesignfiles: “Tell me a little about your background – what did you study and what path led you to what you’re doing now?”

“I’d almost bet I’m the first person with a Chemistry degree to grace your blog!

I think, like a lot of people, I never really knew what I wanted to be when I grew up. So, when I finished school, even though my best marks were in English and Painting, I thought the more sensible thing to do would be to study Commerce and Science. That lead me to a very sensible career as a management consultant working on projects for companies like banks and airlines, both of which I also used a lot; I flew ridiculous amounts and was paid ridiculously well. That was pretty seductive, but on some really fundamental level I knew it wasn’t what I was meant to be doing with my life, it wasn’t what I was passionate about.

I was volunteering at art galleries on weekends just to get my ‘fix’. Eventually I walked into a newsagent one night wanting to buy a mag but just couldn’t find what I wanted. I wanted to read about real people who’d found what they were passionate about in life and how they’d gone about pursuing it. When I walked out of that newsagent and I hadn’t found a mag but I had found what I was going to do. I was going to make a mag for people like me.”

  45. We’re having coffee at Nylon Coffee Roasters on Everton Park in Singapore.
    I’m having black coffee, he’s developing a cappuccino. He’s
    handsome. Brown hair slicked back, glasses for his face,
    hazel eyes and the most amazing lips I’ve seen. He is quality,
    with incredible arms including a chest that stands out with this sweater.
    We’re standing in front of each other discussing our lives,
    what we want money, what we’re searching for on another
    person. He starts telling me that they have been rejected lots of times.

    ‘Why Andrew? You’re so handsome. I’d never reject you ‘, I have faith that He
    smiles at me, biting his lip.

    ‘Oh, I don’t know. Everything happens for an excuse
    right. But tell me, you wouldn’t reject me, does one Ana?’ He said.

    ‘No, how could I?’ , I replied

    “So, can you mind if I kissed you at this time?’ he was quoted saying as I get closer to him and kiss him.

    ‘The next time don’t ask, simply do it.’ I reply.

    ‘I’m keen on the way you think.’ , he said.

    In the meantime, I start scrubbing my your back heel in her leg, massaging it slowly. ‘Exactly what do you prefer in women? And, Andrew, don’t spare me the details.’ I ask.

    ‘I enjoy determined women. Someone who knows what we want. A person who won’t say yes because I said yes. Someone who’s not afraid when you try something totally new,’ he says. ‘I’m never afraid of trying something totally new, especially in relation to making interesting things in bed ‘, I intimate ‘And Everyone loves girls that are direct, who cut in the chase, like you merely did. To generally be
    honest, that is a huge turn on.’
