Third Year Anniversary of Through the Shattered Lens!


trinitydc

As the December 24 inches towards it’s end I would like to say thank you to everyone who have been a part of helping Through the Shattered GRow from a small idea where people can write things about entertainment without fear of being censored. It’s been a labor of love  for myself and Lisa Marie Bowman who I call my partner-in-crime since this site’s humble beginnings. While Through the Shattered Lens could never come up to the level of the bigger and better-known entertainment blog sites I do appreciate the loyal followers who have decided to make this site a destination place for all and everything entertainment.

The past year has been one reaching new goals and records that I never thought possible. It has also been a trying one which has tested my own idea of keeping the site free from trolling and abuse. While this has made for some less than civilized back and forth between writers and commentators (I, for one, find myself guilty of it as well) in the end I’ve stuck to keeping the place free from unnecessary policing.

So, a third year of Through the Shattered Lens has arrived and we boldly move to making a 4th Year Anniversary become a possibility a year from now. What better way to celebrate this latest anniversary than approval from the Trinity of Geek Gods above.
