An Open Letter from Optigrab

As most of you likely know, there has been an infrequent amount of output on Optigrab as of late. This isn't from lack of interest, but more because I have become busy juggling assignments for various other websites. For starters, I have recently become a writer at Rant Lifestyle in the Entertainment section where I write daily. Most of the news stories I would have posted here are now over there. Also, my opinion pieces are up on Readwave and are released every Monday and Wednesday. I'm also in the midst of Oscar season over at The Oscar Buzz, so that's also eating up a lot of my time.

More info after the jump.

I apologize to anyone who feels slighted that this blog hasn't produced a plethora of assignments like it did so much as a few weeks ago. I assure you that I will do my best to keep it alive with weekly recaps of Bob's Burgers (Tuesday), Brooklyn Nine-Nine (Wednesday), and American Horror Story: Freak Show (Thursday) as well as regular columns including Alternative to What and Trailing Off. I unfortunately don't have enough time anymore to do My Favorite Season, which celebrated a very brief run. My hope is to bring it back when assignments die down. As for now, it is hard to pull stuff together for that.

Don't worry. I promise to have more original content in the weeks to follow. It just will be spread out more and likely will keep any one blog from looking too productive. However, I will continue to try to remain dedicated to them all. However, with my brain everywhere and personal life interfering, it has been hard to promote and maintain a daily regime. That is my fault, so I apologize for any slack in professionalism. 

Still, things to look forward to include new movie reviews (some very soon). I am also in the middle of compiling a massive project for 2015 that should be rather fun. Also, it's almost time to start prepping for Listmania! Yes, the last two months are going to be big, I promise. As for now, I must apologize for "slacking" off. Also, please check out my work on Rant Lifestyle. I assure you that it's very good. 

And finally, I would like to share some additional news:

I have published a short story called "But Dad Never Listened to Danny Brown," which is available on Amazon, Smashwords and other eBook retailers. It is currently available for $1.99. I promise to have another one available in early November. My goal is to make my fictional writing a monthly output, if just to give you a taste of my creative side. 

Otherwise, I just have to keep plugging away. Thanks for being patient and supportive.
