“Feedback Fridays” to Continue, Now at 1912 Coffee and Bites

Managing Editor of Marlin Democrat, Alex Montoya, is excited to announce the return of “Feedback Fridays” after a two week break. “Feedback Fridays” began shortly after Montoya’s appointment as Managing Editor in the Fall of 2025, an open invitation for the Marlin community to stop by for office hours from 9 a.m. - noon. Though the Marlin Democrat office at 251 Live Oak has been closed indefinitely by new owners Times Local Media Group, Montoya has established a partnership with 1912 Coffee and Bites that will facilitate continued conversations with the local community, now with coffee on the menu!
