Introducing FreelanceSwitch’s New Editor



It’s my great pleasure to announce today that FreelanceSwitch has a new editor in chief! She actually took over a couple of weeks ago but wanted to get into the flow of things before formally announcing on the site. Of course most of you already know her from her fabulous articles, I’m speaking of none other than Skellie!

Skellie not only has a great nose for blogging, but coincidentally is also Australian (though she’s from Melbourne which we all know to be not as fabulous as Sydney, but nice all the same). She also writes and edits at Problogger, NorthxEast, DailyBlogTips and her own blogs Anywired and Skelliewag, making her just about the most experienced blogger around :-)

So I’m sure you’ll join me in welcoming Skellie aboard and wishing her well with the site! I think FSw will really flourish with her content direction. I myself am working busily on our Rockstar brand and books with some imminent releases and also on FSw’s sister blog PSDTUTS. Nonetheless I’ll still be posting the odd article here happily and announcing things and working on upgrading and improving the site!

    Hey Damien — consider me warned :) .

    Wow, THAT is a great news! As an avid reader of Skellie’s blogs, I’ll surely enjoy her content direction!

    All the best to you Skellie!

    Congrats! It seems more and more of my RSS feeds have been adding some Skellie flavor in one way or another.

    Sounds like a great “leap forward” on Leap Day, Collis! Skellie, if anyone gives you a hard time just let me know. I’ll sic my blog editor friends (including myself) on ‘em. Congratulations to all.

    “though she’s from Melbourne which we all know to be not as fabulous as Sydney, but nice all the same”

    Careful, I’m from Melbourne. We’re proud of our city. :) Nice to see a fellow Australian/Melbournite, though! (I’m a new subscriber to FreelanceSwitch as it is, though!)

  13. PG Skellie

    Thanks everyone! I’ve gone from avid reader to contributor to editor in chief, and it’s been the coolest (most surreal) journey. One that wouldn’t have been possible without Collis’s support. He really is an awesome guy — and I have big shoes to fill, that’s for sure.

  14. PG Chris Laskey

    Welcome Skellie! Hope the promotion came with the corner office, complete with those killer views. For me, its come full circle, I started following your site from your guest posts on Freelance Switch, which then lead me to skelliewag.org, and problogger.net. Now that I read all three, you’re the main editor of freelanceswitch. Skellie – where do you find all that time?

    It’s a small, small (blog) world.

    Collis, you’ve done an absolutely great job finding talented editors and writers for both here and PSD tuts. Look forward to the future of the Eden Family

    Cheers

    I’ve only ever commented on one blog post in my life until now. This made me come out of the woodwork, though. Skellie, you are my favorite blogger ever; I’m really excited to see the direction you take this site (but hope it won’t interfere too much with the writing on your blogs!). Good luck. :-)

    Well, You can thank Skellie for pushing me over to this site. I think Skellie is an insane blogger with a try sense at what she does. I’ll be checking back at this site to see how it all goes.
