Thanks to those of you who are making Progressive Pensacola a success.  Thanks to you, our traffic has increased each and every month we’ve been publishing.  October saw a 65% increase over September’s traffic.

We started writing out of a desire to let others know what’s going on in our community.  The powers that be are only able to do the nefarious things they do because the people don’t hear about it.  If you’ll keep reading, we’ll keep writing.

Starting today, Progressive Pensacola will feature guest bloggers — good content written by good writers that just so happen to not be me.

Our first guest blogger is an area Democratic activist, who for personal reasons will use the psuedonym From the Left when guest blogging.

Interested in guest blogging for Progressive Pensacola?  You don’t have to be a member of any specific party or subscribe to any particular school of political thought.  The only requirement is that you be forward-thinking (progressive).  If interested, contact me at dscosson@gmail.com.

Every once in a while, I get so frustrated with my beloved Pensacola, and the… special… way things are done here, that I have to take a little downtime.

Regular posting will resume next week.

At whatever point anyone reads this, consider this an inaugural announcement. This is Progressive Pensacola. It is intended to serve as both a monologue, for me, and a dialogue, for the community, to discuss area politics, news, culture, et cetera.

In time I will add some other nifty things:

• A calendar listing upcoming political and cultural events
• Forum capabilities to foster discussion

For now, my words and sentences will have to do.
