When we first started News Growl, we frankly did not have much of a plan. "Let's start a website," my friend Patricia McConnell suggested. "Let's see where it goes."
We wanted to have something unique, though. There are hundreds of political news websites out there. Patricia suggested having a fashion column, only possible because of the growing number of women entering politics. But who would write it? Pat was too busy, and it frankly couldn't have been me (those of you who know me will probably be giggling just to think of that idea). We found a friend of a friend named Gail Day, who has frankly been fantastic. Her (almost) weekly column has been a huge part of News Growl's success. But part of the deal to get her to agree to join us was to help her launch a site dedicated to fashion. That job did fall to me. I kept putting it off. Just getting News Growl going was hard. But now finally the new site is launched: Fashion Growl! I've been really impressed with the quality of the content, and it's looking likely this whole caper might become sustainable now (as a business, I mean). So look for more "growl" sites to come.... |
