The Return of Sully! And the future of the site.
Hey folks.
First off, I would like to thank Pat for all the hard work that he did. I started this site as just a place where I could vent about the Red Sox. Pat made it more than that. As real life intervened he built this place from a place to vent to a place people might actually want to come to and read. The viability of the site is owed to him, and I’m grateful. I wish him luck with Baseball Analysts (a terrific site).
The good news that that he said that he will be making the occasional guest appearance over here, for you Sullyphiles out there.
Now, the future of the site. As long time readers know, I only write a few times a month in season, and less so in the offseason. Obviously, a baseball blog cannot survive with that schedule.
That’s why I’m looking to create a new Sully. If you are interested in writing for The House That Dewey Built, just shoot me an e-mail (jkuhn22@gmail.com) and I’ll give you a column topic to file with me. The best one I get by February will get a permanent spot as the lead columnist at Dewey’s House.
All you need to be is:
1. A Red Sox fan
2. A good writer
3. Able to take an analytical look at baseball
4. Able to write 3+ times a week
We get a fairly solid readership, so this is a pretty good oppertunity to get your ideas seen by giants in our blogsphere like Rich Lederer or Patrick Sullivan. So there we are…the future in the site is in your hands. Let me know if you want to keep it going, chums.
You may already be aware of her, but take a look at “Basegirl” (http://basegirl.blogspot.com/) who has a very sophisticated sense of baseball, and who I consider one of the best sports writers in the Boston area. Right now she’s focusing on football, and appropriately so. But if you look in her archives, you’ll be impressed, I’m sure. She’s got great insight, writes well, and is very, very funny.
