Hello!
Wow, April already. I’ve been writing those monthly newsletters regularly, so, if you’ve signed up for those you know a little about what I’ve been up to. I figure I should send out a wider message, blog-style, just to let everyone know I’m traveling to LA for the next week and a bit. I’ll be home on the 23rd so that’s when you should expect to see the next gloomie.
Also, I quit my job recently! I’m taking a sabbatical, so Friday was my last day. I’m going to travel and work on some personal projects, Gloomies being a big one of them. I should have a book ready for this year’s FanExpo and for sale in the online store.
I better get some sleep now, I leave for the airport tomorrow morning!
Best wishes!

Hello all! Happy New Year, and I hope everyone had a great holiday season!
Everyone, gather ’round. I have big plans for this year, for Gloomies, so watch out! Here comes 2011!
First of all, I’d like to introduce our new Newsletter! You should see a link close to the bottom of the page that allows you to sign up for this. We aren’t going to share or sell your e-mail address, or anything like that, so don’t worry. This is so I can put together a mailing list of super gloomie-enthusiasts. With a newsletter subscription, each and every month we will send you all of the Gloomies from that month in one batch in case you didn’t get a chance to check them all, plus there will be one bonus gloomie I’ll make special for the mailing list that won’t be on the regular site! So, check that out, the first newsletter (for the month of January) will be out at the beginning of February.
We have a new search function on the site, thanks to Google, and it works a whole lot better than the old one did. Play around and see what come up, when you type in some of your favourite words.
We’re also experimenting with some advertising; you’ll notice the one big ad banner split into two smaller ones. We want to keep this as unobtrusive as possible, so send us an e-mail if you have any concern with the direction we are taking (we’re making this for you to enjoy anyways).
So, there’s some super-cool, awesome and new things coming! I can’t wait!
