Hello folks!
Sadly the rumours are true. This is my last post as an HJC writer.
It's been a lot of fun writing for HJC, and it's something I still really enjoy, but unfortunately I just don't have enough time to commit to this position anymore. So I decided to hang up my keyboard, as I didn't want to continue on with shorter, rushed posts.
That doesn't mean you'll never hear from me again though, I'll still be visiting this site everyday, leaving the occasional comment, and submitting any concepts that I make. To put it another way, I'll still be part of the HJC community.
And HJC really is a community. It wouldn't exist without all of you, the readers, the commenters, everyone who submits concepts, and of course the other writers as well. Not just current writers either, there have now been 23 people who have been HJC writers at one point or another (see the end of this post).
I think that number says a lot. That there have been 23 folks who have volunteered for this website over the years, really shows how much this site means to people. That's not even counting everyone who's applied to write for HJC but had to be turned down.
HJC also obviously wouldn't exist without Ryan Haslett, it's founder, and current administrator and Saturday writer. He does a lot of behind the scenes stuff to make this website work, I think more than most people realize. Thank you for everything, Ryan!
Last of all, I want to take this opportunity to welcome TC Moore to the writing team. I've been very impressed with how much his concepts have improved over such a short amount of time, and I'm sure he'll make a great writer as well. Welcome aboard, TC Moore!

You may or may not recall this, but the last time we were looking for a new writer, I made a list of everyone who had written for HJC and how many posts they wrote. It seemed to be fairly well received, so I thought a good way to end my last post would be to provide an update of those "standings". Current writers are in bold.
