Five Years
👋🏻
As I emerge from my flu cocoon (what year is it? 😵💫), I just wanted to pop in today and share that it's the five year anniversary of Max Frequency. I am happy and proud of the whole creative endeavor and look forward to the next five years.
Here's a little excerpt from my annual year-in-review post, which I hope you'll take a look at. I'll write a fuller letter next time about my week of disease, but today, I just wanted to say thanks. So thanks. Until next time...
There was a time where I was thrilled that 600~ people took the time to look at my 18,000+ words on Naughty Dog and The Last of Us Part II. By that metric, 40,000 is incredible. Never lose sight of where you've come from and I think you will always be amazed at how far you've come along.
Thank you all for the past five years. Here's to many more five year chunks and here's to 2025!
