Welcome New Staff/Contribs

2020-04-23 by Sowing STAFF | 92 Comments
Please join me in congratulating the below individuals on making the leap to our staff and contributor ranks:

Staff:
-granitenotebook
-Johnnyofthewell

Contributor:
-AsleepInTheBack
-dmathias52
-MiloRuggles
-TheNotrap

We're also quite happy to announce that longtime user and former Sputnikmusic contributor, Waior, will be reclaiming his old post.

Thank you to all who applied. We encourage anyone who might have narrowly missed the cut to keep trying. I'm keenly aware that "ghost promotions" are more of a myth at this point, but I can almost promise you that in 2020, they will be real and will come perhaps even sooner than anticipated.

If anyone has questions, they should reach out to me directly (sowingsputnik (at) gmail (dot) com).

Otherwise, let's welcome the class of 2020 and wish them well in their new roles!
