Quick Messages is a new feature I’m testing. As the name suggests, these are short messages, normally just a link, tweet or video. I know we miss some stories, so this will allow us to cover a topic without having to spend an hour writing 600 words of neat prose.
I help run Slugger by taking care of the site as well as organizing our live events. I have a background in business, marketing and IT. My policy tends towards average pragmatism, I am not a member of any political party. Oddly for a member of the Slugger team, I’m not that much interested in day-to-day politics, preferring to write about big ideas in society. When I’m not stuck in front of a screen, I’m a parkrun race director.

For over 20 years, Slugger has been an independent place for debate and new ideas. We have posted over 40,000 posts and over 1.5 million comments on the site. Every month we have over 70,000 readers. All of this we accomplished with only volunteers, we never had paid staff.
Slugger receives no funding and we respect our readers, so we will never run intrusive ads or sponsored posts. Instead, we’re backed by readers. Help us keep Slugger independent by becoming a Slugger Friend.
As we run a tight ship and no one gets paid to write, we need money to help cover our costs.
