19. Are you mad at Lisa Marie for firing you?
Well, again, I wasn't fired. What happened was that Lisa Maire and her husband Les ran Go Postal and Thumblords and some other TGPs. They were the ones that headed up the review team for JJJ. When JJJ stopped using reviewers it hit me hard but hit them much harder. Despite that they tried as best they could to give a lifeline to the reviewers that had lost their jobs. They asked me to do the reviews for Thumblords so I did but she had to sell Thumblords and her and Les made the choice to leave the industry.
I am sad about that because if it wasn't for her I would never have started to work full time in this industry. When I first started playing with the industry in 1998 I briefly tried to start my own tgp and I wrote her an email to Go Postal asking to trade links. She responded and offered me the chance to review galleries and from there I got my foot in the door.
