The 400 Edition Story |
|
|
|
Ten years ago, Bob and Linda Merritt launched the North Georgia Star, a newspaper built to cover North Georgia...but only as far south as Alpharetta. They built the North Georgia Star at an astonishing rate and helped many local businesses through advertising and promotion. Four years, ago, the Merritts decided to sell their thriving business and retire.
After several years of traveling in their RV, the Merritts felt the rush of ink in their veins. With a little encouragement from their daughter, Beth Snider, and Carole Lee, longtime friend, and a lot of prayer, 400 Edition was founded.
