because I’m not a corporate shill: testimonial from reader and subscriber RogerBW

Fri, Feb 28, 2014

I was looking for 321 subscribers this month. I got 18.

A friend of mine used to say that he was “celibate by popular demand.” That’s kinda how I feel right now. By popular demand, I remain a starving writer with a huge readership. Thanks, Internet. You’re a pal.

Obviously, I still need more readers to subscribe. Which you can do by clicking here. Or click on the pageview counter in the bottom right corner. Or wait for the reminder popup that will appear after every couple of pageviews.

Longtime reader and subscriber RogerBW says:

I’ve been reading the site nearly since it started, and it’s kept going while others have gone dark or turned into corporate shills. Honest opinion, thoughtful criticism, and introductions to hidden gems that I’d never otherwise have heard about. Excellent value!

You’re funny, thoughtful, acerbic and fun to read — and not every critic is like that. And even though I disagree with you on some things, I like your work. So I chipped my $50 in yesterday…
