We missed you. :-) 2009 has been pretty good so far. ;D I've noticed a drop off during the holidays but it's not confined to Glurpworld. Kevinswatch had the lowest post count for a December since 2003 and showed a consistent decline from February to the end of 2008. What gives? Maybe we're all depressed by the economy or something. In any case I'm sure we'll snap out of it eventually. On the bright side Glurpworld is fast approaching 5,000 posts and less than half of them are mine! ;D

I think the decline at KW can be explained simply: The Fellowship of the Watch is breaking... (Yeah, I'm in Tolkien mode right now.)
Happy new year to all! And if 2009 isn't happier than '08, then we really, really are in trouble.

I feel like we've been doing our part Menolly and yet the numbers are down.
I was planning on giving the Kevinswatch Anthology another shot but the 2008 book didn't get many submissions. Interest in general is off I guess.

As to the Fellowship breaking at KW I'm left trying to remember why it was formed in the first place...oh yeah...Donaldson...heh.

If I was articlate enough to write a story or a poem I would try and contribute to the Anthology Atomic, but Im a bit limited in that department but I suppose I could give it a try

There have been many first time authors that have contributed to the Anthologies. You never really know until you try. Especially if you have an idea for a story that you really think is cool. :-)

Happy New Year! The aughts end next year. (There was no year Zero, so all decades, centuries, and milleniums, etc., end in the 0 ending year) ...and we wonder where Beorn's pedantic nature comes from, sheesh...
