They Said It Wouldn’t Last . . .

December 1st, 2009
Author Troy Brownfield

One year ago today, my team and I assumed the posting duties for Blog@Newsarama. There might have been some doubt from some quarters, but any real investigation into our traffic would indicate that we’ve been doing just fine all along. I’m quite proud of the group, and I think that they do a great job. On this one-year anniversary, I just wanted to take time to say, “Thanks, guys. Don’t forget that I really appreciate you all.”

Regular readers, please offer a round of applause for the gang, wouldn’t you? Oh, and before I forget . . . Caleb is waaaaay too nice to be Lee Marvin, but I’ll take John Cassavetes anyway, since you never know when someone might shoot you in the back.

Thanks for reading. We’re far from finished.

    Congrats on reaching the one year mark!

    This seems like a great start to what will probably be a great column over here… The big thing that I’m curious about in regards to the examples above is how to start in the industry as a writer with little to no artistic skills. Yes, BLO’M was able to work as an inker then an illustrator for another book before getting to do his own story, but what is the writing equivalent of that
