I wanted to take a moment to let you folks know what’s going on here at TomKnighton.com. As you may have noticed, posts haven’t been coming in like they used to. Truth be told, I’ve been focusing more of my energy on the new Laws-n-Sausages site (which I urge you to visit). The main reason I was posting anything was so it could be used at United Liberty. United Liberty is where I’ve actually been getting a lot more exposure to my ideas.
I don’t write just for the fun, but to share my ideas and to hone my arguments in defense of them. Unfortunately, TomKnighton.com never really developed like I hoped it would. After almost a year of doing this, the readership never really got where I wanted it to be. When I launched Laws-n-Sausages, it was to fill a niche that SWGAPolitics.com had left. However, the readership from the first day has been higher than this site.
When I think about it, it’s not particularly surprising either. There are tons of sites that cover national politics. Competing with them is difficult. However, local politics is a different matter entirely. Local news and commentary is rather rare and therefore it’s easier to find LnS.
So what will happen to TomKnighton.com? For the time being, not much. Political commentary will probably cease, but I still intend to post a bit about political philosophy. I also hope to share news about Knighton Media, the company I’m in the process of launching that will manage Laws-n-Sausages as well as a couple of other websites I have in the works. There is a hope for Knighton Media to grow out of the internet and actually branch out into more traditional media like radio and television. We’ll have to see how that goes. This site will provide the news and updates on that for the time being.
I’d like to thank those who have followed what’s been going on here. It means a lot. I only hope you’ll continue to follow my writing by visiting United Liberty and Laws-n-Sausages. Thanks.
