Boicotta Settembre!

I’ve been asked, several times, in various states of politeness, why this site is “dead.”

It’s an excellent question, and one I’m reluctant to answer, as I’ve yet to find a valid explanation that would cover all of my bases. So, I came up with a great excuse.

We’re boycotting September.

That’s right, folks. Here at Lost Levels, we view the ninth month of the year as a time of personal reflection, a time to stop writing about video games and take the time to notice the little things.

It also happens to be the month Fall semester begins, and merely the second month of the little project you’re now viewing.

In short, I was mistaken in believing that I could produce work of adequate quality on a set schedule. I can not. In a perfect world, writing about video games would cover my rent and my ramen noodle and coffee stockpile, but it does not.

So here’s the deal. I’ll publish articles, right here, when they’re done. This is not to say that my future output will not match that of August’s. What this means is that, instead of worrying about balancing three to four articles at a time, I can focus on getting each one done right. Which, to me, is scads more important than reaching some kind of presupposed deadline.

We’ll pick up again this weekend. After that, I foresee no problems in publishing regular updates. Thank you for your continued support and words of encouragement. We’re not going anywhere, and it only gets better from here.
