Five years ago today, on the eve of Christmas Eve, I began this Fellowship of the Minds. With me were Steve and joandarc, stalwart friends and allies.
Soon, DCG came on board, followed by Dave, Trail Dust, Mike, and Kelleigh.
On this 5th anniversary, our little non-commercial non-corporate blog can claim an astonishing 16 million in total number of unique views or hits, with readers not just in America, but across the world in places we barely knew existed, like Tuvalu and Anguilla. We even have a reader in North Korea (DPRK)! LOL (Click here to see where our readers are).
We could only have done this because of *you*, our readers, and especially our regular commenters.
I want to take this occasion to thank you all.
Thank you, FOTM readers! — including even the trolls, whose vulgar, insulting, obscene, blasphemous, and murderous comments are not just amusing, they confirm our resolve to continue fighting.
Thank you, FOTM’s loyal commenters! — for your intelligence, wisdom and wit.
But most of all, THANK YOU, to all the members of FOTM’s writing team — Steve, joandarc, DCG, Dave, Trail Dust, Mike, Kelleigh (and erstwhile contributors Tom in NC and Sage_brush) — who selflessly have given their time, energy, talents, and heart to this blog, with $0 in remuneration, in service to God and country.
To mark this 5th anniversary, FOTM’s writers have each selected a favorite post to re-publish. Enjoy!
May God bless and keep you,
~Dr. Eowyn
Founder & Owner of FOTM
