Ten years of writing -- a thank you letter to my readers

Whether you've just started reading my work, or have been reading for years...thank you!

This month marked the tenth year that I seriously began the hobby of writing my opinion on current events.

I had dabbled in writing previously, but in November of 2005 I began writing guest columns for the UWM Post, the student-run newspaper at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

I’ve written on countless topics since 2005. I’ve been on the right side of history on many of them, missed the mark on some, but am proud of the stances I took and the ways that I defended them over the years, primarily through citation and diligent research.

I started this blog site about six months after graduating in 2008. And I’ve written elsewhere as well -- Dane101.com, Wisconsin Daily Independent, Elite Daily, AMERICA Blog, and the Cap Times have all been home to my published work. I’m grateful to each of those publications for disseminating my ideas to their audiences.

Overall, I’d say I’ve written over 2,000 pieces of political opinion...and I don’t intend to stop now.

We may have passed the Thanksgiving weekend, but I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you, the reader, for taking the time to read my rants over the years. Whether you’re new to my work, or you’ve been following me for a few years now, I want to let you know that I am appreciative of you spending a few moments of your day reading what I have to say about the world around us.
