I think it's safe to say after a year and a half's worth of inactivity that Thought Balloons, started by the incomparable Ryan K Lindsay, has died. And it did so just as I was being passed the reigns. Which is a huge bummer.
For a few months, I reached out to writers I knew. Nobody was much interested. I toyed with recreating Thought Balloons as something new, but it isn't mine to manipulate in such a way.
So it's sat.
Every once in a while, I check on it. See if the domain is still functioning. If the new logo I put together still works with the new template.
It still does.
And there might still be a future here. But if there isn't, and this is indeed the final post, I want to apologize for letting something so awesome wither away on my watch, however short that turned out to actually be.
If you're just now finding Thought Balloons, welcome! There are still plenty of exciting ideas, endearing characters, and more tucked away in our archives. You just have to dig for them.

Hey man, don't be so hard on yourself! Life gets in the way. We all know that even that single page, weekly, can take up a chunk of headspace when you want to do it well. Hopefully all us past TBers are still writing in some capacity or other.
ReplyDeleteI'll keep an eye to see if TB gets resurrected, but if not, it'd be cool if the archive stays up.
