Agree. I'm generally far from inclined to plough through someone's badly written memoirs, but this guy had a definite talent. Stickman himself was blown away by the quality of the writing, it kind of put his own in the shade. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stickman himself was blown away by the quality of the writing, it kind of put his own in the shade. Yep, I had some notions of becoming a writer, short stories maybe, when I have more time of my own. Then I read Steve and that was the end of that fancy. There was no way I could write like that and, sad to say, even he's not been very successful. Ah, well, better to realize one's limitations sooner than later. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shaksey 111 #21 Posted June 3, 2018 I miss Stick's Sunday musings. Enjoyed reading them with my breakfast and coffee. Some of the readers submissions were very good too, and yes I also agree that the best were from Steve Rosse. He, and the other very good writers no longer send pieces to the site though because the new owners sneakily changed the T+C's to make any submitted piece their own property to profit from in any way they like and also refused to take down any previously submitted pieces. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buick 864 #22 Posted June 3, 2018 i do miss stickman's weekly article. i enjoyed the bangkok gossip section more than the opening piece most weeks. i do remember towards the end of the column, stick had said the entity that he sold the site to was no longer willing/able to pay him. and he really didn't want to do it for free given the time and effort (who can blame him). an end of long era. i hope he is doing well in NZ.

I would say the new owner had more to do with the end, than him working remotely. The quality of the products he covered (mostly sponsors) have deteriorated so much (see: What Happened to NEP), that must have been painful for him, like it is for many of us. Yes, and he made some interesting comparisons with pay for play in NZ compared to BKK. NZ had become a bargain by comparison, but that's probably because prostitution is now a legal, taxable profession there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
