Okay, well, maybe not, because who would do that? It’s food! I’m pretty sure we all need that badly.
Anyway, as the byline states, this is Miranda, your friendly neighborhood Kobold Press blog editor, and I’m here to make my last post in that role after years of curating the Kobold Press blog. It has been a blast! I’ve enjoyed working with all of those who have made submissions to the blog, I’ve had a ton of fun meeting so many of my fellow gamers through this blog (and at conventions — when you can find me!), and I’ve especially enjoyed the contests because it’s such a cool way to see what you all come up with for your fellow gamers!
So, what happens next for the blog?
Well, blog editor veteran Scott Gable is returning to take over the editorial duties for this blog. He’ll be starting tomorrow, though he has already been working to ramp up. I’m eager to see what he brings back to the blog!
Here are my requests to you in the meantime:
1. Give him a warm welcome back!
2. If you’ve been thinking about writing something for the blog, check the submission guidelines and do it!
3. Write and create with a sense of wonder and all the enthusiasm you can bring to bear — whether for yourselves, your own gaming table, or others. It’s all good!
4. Have fun with this shared passion of ours! This world we live in needs more joy in it, and tabletop gaming is an excellent way to add that to your life and the lives of others.
As for me, I’ll be wandering around as only a pixie-ninja-gamer-editor can, and I’ll be fulfilling my own requests. So, to start…
Welcome back, Scott! I’m so happy and excited for the Kobold Press blog and for you!
And my heartfelt thanks go to all of you for being such excellent and supportive members of the Kobold community, plus so many thanks and kudos to Wolfgang, who has been a joy to work with all these years!
Thanks for all you’ve done for the blog, Miranda! I wish you the best in your future endeavors.
Welcome back, Scott! Expect to see something from me in the next couple of week.s ;)
No more; “Hello again Ms. Horner”?
Alas, I am saddened, truly.
You will be missed Miranda, will you perhaps post/submit occasionally?
In any case I wish you all the best in every endeavor. I will not attempt to express my boundless gratitude to you and your endless patience and editorial skills, but please know; you have made a difference and a resounding impact.
I miss you already and I have never even met you in person, LoL
Godspeed, Miranda Horner.
-Robert.
Miranda, I can say it just won’t be the same without you! Thank you for all the wonderful contests, the collections of curiosities, the interviews and series and the tinkering on the server that no one really saw–but that made it hum.
You’re always welcome in the warrens, and if you ever need a gang of nocturnal rogues to swoop in on giant owls for any reason–well, you know where to find us!
Miranda:
Safe journeys along Midgard’s many roads — shadow, unpaved and ocean blue. It’s been a pleasure to explore the Grand Duchy under your guidance. Until we meet again … may all things go well with you.
And hello to Scott, an excellent editor, who is all too familiar with the things weird and were that happen after midnight.
Miranda, I will truly miss your efficiency and skill, but most especially I will miss *YOU*.
Fair winds and following seas…
Thanks for all your help and imaginative ideas you have shared!
Huzzah!
