I know we've had a lot of changes around here since the new year. We said goodbye to our beloved Wendie and Kelly, and welcomed Molls and Sarah on as our new weekday writers. We're currently in the process of
hiring a new weekend writer. I've taken on a lot of exciting new projects, like producing exclusive content for
SuperPass, including
Back to Reality, a new weekly entertainment show starring Chelsia Hart, Laremy Legel and myself (
check out the trailer here!!!). I'm also delighted and proud to be a founding member of a local tech startup called
Digri, which we're hoping you'll hear a lot more about in the future. We've already been featured in TechFlash, Seattle 2.0, Thrillist and at Twestival. In addition to the growth we've seen on Evil Beet over the past year, our one-year-old fem-blog baby,
Zelda Lily, has exploded under the leadership of Sarah Spangenberg and Ashley Lindstrom, and continues to grow faster than I'd ever expected. I couldn't be more pleased.
With everything I've got going on right now, I realized I'm not going to have time it takes to write the quality introspective pieces you've come to expect from my personal blog,
Sasha is a Monster. This pains me, because SIAM has become something of a window into my soul. It's where readers know they can come to get to know the real me, stripped of the Evil Beet voice and faux persona. SIAM is the truest representation of Sasha Pasulka as a human being. I hate to think that I'm not giving it the time and effort it deserves.
So, today, I'm delighted to announce that Molly McAleer will be taking over the authorship of my personal blog. Molly will start on Monday, giving you insight into my day-to-day life, friends, activities, struggles and triumphs. I've worked with Molly for over a year now, and so I know that, although we've never actually met face-to-face, she's the ideal person to tell you all about exactly what I'm doing and feeling each and every day. She's going to try to sound exactly like I would at all times, because I've asked her specifically to disguise any unique talent and voice she possesses in the interest of being a carbon copy of myself, because I know that's what the readers have come to expect. On the days Molly can't write on SIAM, Sarah will be filling in, usually in the early mornings. She's also been asked to sound exactly like me, thinking to herself after each and every sentence, "Is this exactly what Sasha would write? Is any of my own personality accidentally peeking through?" I think it's disruptive, ineffective and unfair to encourage writers to develop their own voices and styles, and I'm grateful that Molly and Sarah have agreed that it's important to be perfect clones of me.
Without further ado, please
head on over to Sasha is a Monster to welcome Molly and Sarah to their new positions. />I know we've had a lot of changes around here since the new year.
