We have just completed our first six months here on the website, and I want to thank those of you who have been following us for a while, and those who have recently found us. Hopefully you continue to find things here that interest you regarding the field of English.
The six-month milestone also requires a check on our Soderbergh Challenge, where we keep track of every book we read and every film we watch over the course of the year. So far, I've already conquered 48 books and 94 films in 2015. And though there were probably a couple dozen I didn't count because I wasn't able to finish them, I'm quite pleased with my rate of completion. I'll see if I can exceed those stats during the back half of the year. Here is June's list. Hopefully yours is still going strong!
