“All is quiet. Not a whisper is to be heard. Almost no one seems to want to share their feelings, opinions, theories or anything else it would seem. Well, at least if we go by the [artthrob website<\/a>].”<\/p>\n

I mean, I love the site, and all, but how’s the editor gonna complain about not enough feedback, when the site itself has been repeating articles, missing articles, and going up late for the last few months? (The above quote is from last month’s intro, but said “feedback section of this site,” where I say “artthrob”.)<\/p>\n

Perhaps I shouldn’t talk, when my regular blogging has been slacked a bit lately (and not for lack of great content from all the shows around town!), but I guess I think of artthrob<\/a> as a more serious publication. None of my “staff” (hee) gets paid, and I don’t sell any prints or advertising (nor do I get as much traffic, I am sure).<\/p>\n

How can I help, guys?<\/p>\n

PS – the only reason I did not post this to their feedback section is because their contact link is broken in this month’s issue!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
