My first visit to Bull City Arts Collaborative (BCAC) was a little disappointed. Steve A. and I…read morestumbled upon the shop during our first Third Friday experience, where the doors were open but no one was interacting with patrons. Not a deal breaker, but there were also no refreshments or beverages offered like most of the Third Friday participants. I really felt no reason to return in the future. HOWEVER, fast forward to a spontaneous visit during a Saturday Farmers Market and my opinion of the studio has gone up. Although there was still no one to interact with us while viewing the small gallery at the front of the shop, I enjoyed the artwork and information available to visitors. BCAC is an "arts and creative professional alliance comprised of three studios." A documentary film and video production studio called The Groove Productions; a graphic design, fine press publishing, and letterpress printing shop called Horse & Buggy Press; and a fine art and portrait photography studio called Marthanna Yater. These three studios offer commissioned work and retail artworks in their own variety of media. They also regularly have rotating artists in the "Upfront Gallery" in the space, open to the public Thursday and Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings as well as every Third Friday from 6-9pm. The exhibits change every month and are comprise of everything from photography, sculpture and pottery to letterpress work and even custom pillows and bags. I recommend stopping by if you're in the area, but I wouldn't go out of the way to visit. Also, since it's a little out of the way of most of the Third Friday vendors, I wouldn't put it on my "must hit" list.

Books.by uses Lulu Durham to print its books. I have now gotten two sets of books that are useless…read more(the original set and the replacement set). There are missing chapters, highlighting where no highlight exists, and the cover has my name and title cut off. Keep in mind, these SAME FILES used for Books.by were also used for IngramSpark and KDP. There were no issues with the proofs from KDP or IS. *ONLY* the books printed out of Lulu's for Books.by have been problematic. No one can tell me why, and no one can figure out how to fix it. Books.by doesn't have real people for support, so you can only talk to bots, and Lulu's phone number goes to nowhere, ensuring that they never have to take responsibility for their shit work. DO NOT USE THEM. Ever. For any reason. I did a video review that's too large for Yelp. You can find it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1L-NfwL-ypohOnCu4Nt1smrP-DIcsXk7H/view?usp=drive_link

The anthology is professionally published and well composed in perfect binding. It is also professionally designed for artwork and layout. No account is needed to be created at check-out upon ordering, but I highly recommend clicking "shipping updates by text" option at the conclusion of your purchase to be informed of delivery times. Four stars rating because shipping time takes approximately 7 to 15 days which is excessively too long in the world of e-commerce. No comment on customer service as I did not utilize.

As far as local newspapers go I'm pretty devoted to Raleigh's News & Observer, but the Herald-Sun…read moreis a decent fallback. Chapel Hill isn't exactly a bustling metropolis, but the Herald-Sun seems like a newspaper from a much smaller town. There's a heavy focus on community happenings, plus quite a bit of local business/development news. As far as length goes it's not very substantial, especially considering that it focuses on news from Orange, Durham, Alamance, Person, Chatham, and Wake counties. I'd probably visit the Herald-Sun website more often if I didn't have to register to read the stories, but at least it's fairly easy to navigate. I can't say that I read the Herald-Sun often enough to have a favorite feature and I certainly wouldn't pay for a subscription, but I'll definitely pick it up and read it if I find one laying around.

When I first moved to Durham, I had some extra AA miles left and wanted to support the local news…read more I bought a year-long subscription to the Durham Herald Sun through my airline miles account. A year later, I received a notice from the Herald Sun that my subscription had expired as well as a request to renew. I chose not to, because I was bogged down with work and just didn't have time to read the newspaper. Months later, the Herald Sun sent a debt collector after me claiming unpaid fees because of their auto-renewal system, fees that I was not aware I was even accumulating. I called customer service, who mentioned that they distinguished between "expiration" and "cancellation" of their services, and that this was written in the fine print in the account details, but at the same time, acknowledged that I didn't have an account since I subscribed through an airline points system. They offered to reduce the fees. UPDATE: I spoke to a second customer service representative, Bella, who was very helpful in sorting this out for me.

After cancelling I received yet another bill and was held hostage "you can't cancel unless you pay…read moreyour bill". After paying it still wasn't cancelled so I stopped paying. Now I have been sent to collections Don't subscribe you can never escape! As the other reviewer said, the news coverage is fine but circulation is a disaster. I've wasted so much time trying to cancel service unsuccessfully. Edit: I'm not sure why Yelp says this is from CA, I live in Durham.
