An Unexpected Slowdown and a Guest Post Request
All good streaks must come to an end.
I was dreading this would happen. I was trying to avoid it.
But it happened anyway: after 17 or so weeks of regularly publishing without interruption, I was forced to skip last week.
And, unfortunately, it looks like I won’t be able to regularly post over the next three months either due to a confluence of unexpected real-life events. Thinking about it, I am reminded of “What He Beheld,” the excellent first season finale of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, which was all about how the best laid plans go awry.*
*No, nothing blew up in my case. But the status quo has been distrupted.
From now till the end of April then, there could be some potentially big gaps in the publication schedule, ones that I’d prefer to avoid.
So, I’d like to ask my fellow Substackers: would you be interested in possibly publishing a guest post here on pop culture, film revision, television, etc.? I’m open to different topics and I’d be largely hands off as an editor. And though T.V. doesn’t have that many subscribers, it could still potentially introduce you to a new audience.
If so, then please send me a pitch by responding to this via email or…
Best,
Mikhail
Hi Mikhail, I had an idea of writing a review of a show called "Slings and Arrows", which is arguably one of the best and definitely one of the most underappreciated TV series in history. Would you like to discuss it as an option for a guest post?
I hope things get dealt with easily. I can think of a few ideas which might work in your example. I have written about alternate reality thinking on occasion in the past and have one or two that I've been thinking about. So it might blend well.
