I Can't Thank You Enough

Shades Of The Departed Magazine is now a reality and things are beginning to calm down. Anyone who knows anything about a project of this magnitude realizes it wasn't done by one person, it took an online village.

So I want to take this opportunity to publicly thank the finest writers and best friends Shades and I could ask for in working toward building an online community dedicated to old photographs and the part they play in our family history.

Thank you to those friends who willingly jumped off the cliff with me when I shouted MAGAZINE! Those friends who met deadlines with fantastic work product and daily offered assistance and encouragement.

The articles in the November Issue are amazing. I attribute that to the dedication of those who give it their all with little or no reward, those contributors to Shades. I know talent when I see it! Thank you!

I'd also like to thank the Shades readers who have been so receptive to this new medium and have twittered, emailed, and commented their support. We do it for you, but we can't do it without you. Thank you!

The excellent writers of Shades write for their own blogs as well. If you enjoy their work, please take a moment to say so and support what they do.

Oh No, Thank you Mahvalous Maven for the chance you took bringing me on board. I am proud to be a part of Shades. By setting the bar so high, you have me trying to reach for the stars - and that is a very good thing!
