Seems like I missed doing a New Year’s greeting last year, but now we are back in old patterns again, with a picture from the New Year’s preparations and a short summary of the past year. 2018 has been an eventful year for Shoegazing, including arranging the first World Championships in shoemaking and that for the first time I now work part-time (20 percent) with the blog.
This day of the week that I have time to focus on the blog has mainly made it possible for me to keep up with a reasonable activity, after having worked about 120-130 percent in reality on Volvo Cars earlier and in addition to that trying to keep up with the blog, the super trunk events and, of course, the family, I was quite exhausted to be honest. Now that I since autumn work 80 percent (well, try to keep it at that anyway) for Skolyx and beyond that have time for the blog, life has become more balanced and I will next year prioritise keeping a high level on the articles and keep up the frequensy to two times a week. Feels like a good amount. I also do some freelance writing for, among others, Manolo.
What would you like to read about on Shoegazing during next year?
A lot of exciting things both private and professional lies ahead for me in 2019, hope you feel the same, and that you will have a really nice New Year’s Eve!
Happy New Year Jesper and thanks for all the lovely posts !!!
Andre: Thanks Andre, Happy New Year!
Thanks for everything you do.
I would be interested in an article or two covering different types of upper leathers. It would be interesting to hear what buyers source the leathers and how they grade the hides.
David: Thanks a lot!Yeah I’ve written some upper leather guides on the Swedish blog, not translated yet. But they are a bit perhaps a bit basic.
