So as you’ve probably figured out by now, we’ve added two new writers to the 8 Asians site: Akrypti and Claire. Each of these writers definitely bring new opinions and voices to the proverbial blogging table, and that is a very good thing. (That shouldn’t stop you from applying to be a writer for 8 Asians if you so desire; life happens, after all, and god forbid if and when writers drop out of the project, we’ll need new blood to take their place. Wow, that makes me sound like vampire.)
This is all well and good, of course, but you’re probably wondering – doesn’t that turn “8 Asians” into… well, “10 Asians?” Well, technically, yeah. But because I’m the editor, I make the rules. And the rule says that I, as an editor don’t really count, although you’ll see me post here every so often. The same also goes for Christine, who is in charge of POP 88, our podcasting sister site – this explains why our images are grayed out at the top of the screen.
And that, my friends, is how 8 + 2 = 8. And people say Asians are good at math.
