Due to an administration error, my writing credits got removed from the articles that I wrote on the Game Culture NZ website and accidentally credited to another author.
As I did the writing for free, having the author credit is pretty much the only reward I got for the job, so it was important for me to get the situation sorted out as soon as possible. Apparently the stuff-up was due to me being removed as a contributor to the site; other commitments making me unable to continue writing for them on a regular basis.
I’ve just moved the site from the comfort of wordpress.com to its permanent home at www.stateofplay.co.nz.
Please adjust your links accordingly, although wordpress.com will redirect you here for the time being. You may notice a lack of functionality and the old hiccup as I configure plug-ins and edit the CSS. Hopefully it’ll all be up and running nicely by next week.
Why have I moved host? Well, this site started out as a simple Saturday afternoon folly. I see a fair amount of potential that wordpress.org simply doesn’t allow for. About a month ago I purchased the domain www.stateofplay.co.nz and it has just been a case of getting around to it/being brave enough to migrate.
There is a lot more that I can do now. So please stick around
This isn’t a music site, I know. But I got a press release in my email box today that triggered a WTF moment that I thought I’d share.
Auckland singer/songwriter Kurt Shanks, who I used to work with when I lived on the Shore, has just released the video for We Shall Have Another Day, the featured track from his debut EP which will be out in the first week of August.
After the best part of a year getting around to it my blog is finally up and running. Most definitely a work in progress. But at least it doesn’t look like a bag of shit.
This isn’t the first time I’ve started a post stating that this isn’t a music site. And it isn’t.
