EDITOR'S NOTE

Hello Mavenati,

I'd like to extend a warm welcome to my new readers and a high five to my loyal readers. As some of you may know, I launched MR. WILL-W.: POP MAVEN this past September in tandem with the Toronto International Film Festival. Soon after that, I received an opportunity to be the official festival correspondent for popular Toronto station CP24 based on the work featured on my blog. Many wonderful things have happened since then including being interviewed over at E! Online too.

I want you to know that I am an avid supporter of many other fine blogs, as you can see under the LINKS section. It touches me every time I see one of my postings quoted or linked. It gives me an incredible sense of validation and it brings me great satisfaction to know that my opinion is respected. I believe strongly in sharing and contributing ideas and hope that you too as readers will be generous with your feedback... as long as it's constructive.

I am now proud to say that this blog has gone from just a handful of visitors a day in its launch phase to now in excess of 500+ visitors daily. I realize this isn't a huge number in the grand scheme of things, but nonetheless, I am appreciative of your interest and support. I hope to continue providing you an entertaining escape from your daily routines because we all need one now and then.

Also, if you look on the right side of my blog, you'll find various other links about some of my other work. Some of you might recognize some of my music, especially if you're in the Toronto or Ottawa area. My latest single Hollywood Ending (Aaron Paetsch Radio Edit) is a certified stomper, which is already getting airplay and I invite you to check it out. Some of you might recognize me from my YouTube Channel, which has ranked as one of the most viewed Canadian channels on multiple occasions. Some of you might recognize my writing and photography from the amazing blogs I've contributed to like Arjan Writes and EQ.

Regardless how you found me, I am grateful to have you aboard here and hope you'll stick around for more. I promise not to disappoint. Why not stay in-the-loop by adding yourself as a Follower at the top left corner of the page or link me up on your Blogroll? Go for it!
