Escaping Criticism
Tuesday, May 9th, 2006 - 10:15am
Hello my Internet friends.
I just wanted to pass along this little bit of information with a request. I actually had an article published in The Escapist magazine. I know. Me.
You can find it here: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/issue/44/3
Anyway, you guys are the best group of writers I know, and it would mean a lot to me if you could take a moment and just let me know what you think. I'm trying to become a better writer, and my fiancee thinks I'm the bee's knees, so she's very little help.
I love you,
Justin

Just wanted to state that it was a good read. Keep up the good work.

I am no writer, so I cannot really provide anything worthwhile to say about your article.
But after reading it, I have to say that I really liked it, despite the fact that it instilled much saddness in me.
I hope Tickstorm will end up releasing their games. And you have certainly put Ironton in my map.
Out of curiousity, how did you come across this "unlikely" game developer?

Any published story in the Escapist grants you instant credibility here. Good article, too, I loved it.
We shall grapple with the ineffable, and see if we may not eff it after all.

I'm leaving my pants on, but it was still a good read.

Hey everybody, thanks so much for the kind words. Yeah, i'm the news editor for the Ironton Tribune, so this one kind of fell in my lap.

I thought it was a really good article. It seemed to be just the perfect length and always kept me interested.

I loved it, Justin. I thought it was a great mix of humor and sentimentality, and it's also just a great story to pick to write about. Brought a wee tear-drop to my e'e.
You write about the town with a real tenderness that's nice.

Gosh, you guys are so nice. Thanks much.

It would seem that Fletch isn't the only one we'll be seeing around the Escapist multiple times. Justin's got a new article up in the new issue. READ.
I like. Between Fletch and Justin, the Escapist must have a pretty good perception of this damn place.

Should the name be changed to GWJ magazine?
