Publishing legend Jane Pratt is officially back with her aptly named Another Jane Pratt Thing.

Pratt was behind cult 1980s and ’90s teen mag Sassy, as well as the era-defining 2010s website xoJane.

Now the new project — which takes the form of a Substack newsletter and an accompanying website — is live.

A buzzy early piece is a classically Pratt-esque first-person essay about a glam editor, Jasmine Glass, who, while running upscale magazine Glassbook in 2015, was homeless.

In the first installment of Glass’ multi-part piece, she explains that she devoted all of her resources to starting the magazine. But as it began to take off, she found herself penniless, living out of a suitcase she left at the stored luggage the Hilton in Midtown. She said that she crashed with dates or friends, but often found herself cleaning up in the bathroom at the same hotel.

“I stripped off my underwear and started scrubbing my crotch with the hotel’s translucent green jelly soap, using paper towels as washcloths,” she writes, “Then I did the same to each of my pits. A true five-star experience. Polished facade of a magazine editor. Survival instincts of a feral raccoon.”

We hear former Page Six writer Corynne Cirilli (née Steindler) has been hired as the exec editor of AJPT.
