From JonathanStrahan.com.au. As always, it’s an honor to be in such company. As has already been pointed out elsewhere, a fairly large percentage of the stories are drawn from online sources, venues that didn’t really exist just a few short years ago. I don’t know if I’d call it a trend, but I do think it is significant.
