Thanks-stuffed update π¦π₯ #000.7
This week, a good ol' fashioned thank you note stuffed with a side of update.
In lieu of the normal weekly newsletter, this week I wanted to send a brief thank you note to you, dear reader, for your support at this early stage of this newsletter and Sometimes Weekly more broadly. Sincerely, thank you! Many of you have supported me for years, while others may be new to this ongoing adventure. To get everyone on the same page, hereβs a look at Sometimes Weekly highlights from the past few months.
Sometimes Weekly in 2023
April
After much consideration (~8 years) I decide Sometimes Weekly should be a real thing. Planning began in earnest.
July
MovieViral.com is reacquired.
I co-founded MovieViral in 2009 when I was in high school. It quickly became a trusted online publication. MovieViral was sold in 2015 to private investors and run independently for eight years. But now, itβs back AND under the Sometimes Weekly umbrellaβmore on this in the coming months!
Highlight: Meet the Team
August
Sometimes Weekly, LLC is formed.
Highlight: I can officially refer to myself as βFounder & CEO,β but my proclivity toward self-deprecation prevents me from doing so except on LinkedIn, the least real social media platform ever created.
September
The Sometimes Weekly Patreon is quietly launched.
This will help support my work and will be where I provide additive behind-the-scenes updates, along with other benefits as outlined.
Highlight: Patreon entry on Americana a e s t h e t i c
October
Punch Weekly (this newsletter) is launched.
Thank you for your patience as Iβve been working out the formatting, look, and voice of the newsletter.
Highlight: What is Sometimes Weekly?
November
The all-new SometimesWeekly.com launched!
This will serve as the hub for all of my creative work from the past, present, and future. The site is still in development but feel free to take a look around.
Highlight: Sometimes Weekly Archives
W Corp. launched at wcorp.xyz!
Done right, this will become a creative, visual, and satirical outlet that provides commentary on our world today.
Highlight: Investor Relations
Hi, everybody!
Hi, Dr. Nick!
Highlight: I successfully defended my dissertation and will be graduating from the University of Dayton with my Doctorate in Education in December.
On the Docket in 2024
Sometimes Weekly: Pamphlets, videos, podcast, merch, and so on.
W Corp: Spiraling unfiction of a tech Founder/CEO who slowly goes insane.
MovieViral: Forum, publication, studio, and so on.
None of this would be possible without the support of those who are interested in the work Iβm creating. This newsletter, in particular, is important to my ability to sustain a well-reasoned voice on current events, and as such will continue to contribute greatly to my other creative endeavors. Thank you for reading and if you ever have questions, comments, or correspondence, please donβt hesitate to reach out to me at nick@sometimesweekly.com.
Until next time, Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
Godspeed & talk soon,
Nick
