For the past 16 years I’ve never taken a holiday from publishing and replying to comments on Permanent Style. I normally take a break on Christmas Day and Boxing Day, but that’s about it.
You could call it dedication if you want, but I suspect it’s more just paranoia that if I don’t log in and keep everyone happy, the PS audience will sort of drift away, taking everything we’ve built with it. There’s a conversation there perhaps about running a business in the tyrannical age of social media, but not one for today.
Because I’m going on holiday!
Next week I won’t be doing any writing, any replying or any emailing. The wonderful Manish is taking over.
Manish will be writing all three articles during the week, and replying to all comments (on articles old or new). He’s got some great things in store, and I know is looking forward to it. He’ll also enjoy giving his view on anything you throw at him, so don’t be afraid to carry on asking any and all questions.
I’m planning on doing absolutely nothing, just being around the house with my kids. It’s going to be wonderful.
I’ll see you on the 15th – be kind to Manish while I’m gone and, you know, look after the place.
