It’s with a heavy heart and a tear in my eye that I announce that I am leaving Brutal as Hell. I have been offered a writing gig with Shock ‘til You Drop and will start writing for them, along with my weekly contribution to Fangoria’s website. I’ve had an unbelievable blast writing for Brutal these past three and a half years and I honestly never thought there would come a time when I would leave. I figured I’d write for you till the day I die (and probably after that), but here we are, parting ways.
When I first started writing for Brutal as Hell, I had never written more than a short story in my life, let alone a review or an article. All I knew was comic books and a site that didn’t have comic coverage. I learned everything about journalism, research, passion, and a witty turn of phrase live on the site and my excellent editors allowed me to grow into the writer I am today. I am forever grateful for their patience and guidance and will always carry with me everything they have taught me. Thank you for taking a chance on me.
Anyway, this has gotten all gross and sentimental. If you’re ever looking for good comic suggestions or just want to drop me a line, come check out my Facebook author page. I’ll keep you updated on all the good spooky happenings and what’s going on with my fiction work (currently, lots of smoke, no fire…yet).
And remember, I love you.
Goodbye and thanks for all the fish.
