Hello Atlanta Loop Readers,

Derek Prall here – I’m the new guy that’s been running the show for the past three months or so. I hope you’ve noticed an increase in both the frequency and quality of Atlanta Loop’s updates since I’ve taken the helm.

If you like what you’ve seen, I’d encourage you to support us on Patreon. We’re asking subscribers to kick in $3 a month or more to support the work we’re doing. These funds will help facilitate the generation of additional entertaining and meaningful content by lightening the financial burden on yours truly to pay our freelancers more and utilize their skills more often.

And now you’ll have to forgive me for getting soap-boxy here, but by donating, not only will you be helping our business out in a very real way, you’ll be confirming your dedication to the cause of local journalism and expressing in a tangible way your understanding of its importance. Facts matter. Truth matters. Journalism matters. Perhaps more so now than ever before. If you agree, I hope you’d feel passionately enough about it to throw in what amounts to a cup of coffee a month so we can keep doing what we do, and doing it better every day.

Thanks so much for your continued support and readership. I’m really excited about the future of Loop, and I hope you are too.

Sincerely,

Derek Prall
