Dear Fango,
You changed my life four years ago. As a lifelong horror fan, it was a dream come true to be part of the team that brought life back into such a vital piece of horror history. To be honest, when I was sixteen, I submitted a pitch to Fango; I didn’t get published, but I dreamed big!
After four years, I am moving on from Fango.
I have met some of the most amazing people that have impacted my life in more ways than they will ever know, and I have learned so much from them. A big thanks to the Chief, Phil Nobile Jr., honestly one of the best coworkers/friends I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Phil is an exceptional writer, leader, and creative mind. I continue to be in awe of his work.
Thanks to my current and former Fango family members, who I consider some of the best of friends. Working in horror has taught me so much about myself and my abilities, as well as the wonderful history of the movies. I will forever be grateful for the opportunity and for all that we have accomplished as a team.
Thanks to all of the folks that subscribed and took a chance when we came back, thanks to all the folks I have met via email, at conventions, events and festivals who are so downright badass.
FANGORIA is a TEAM effort, and it has some amazing people behind it. I wish Fango and the Fango fam the best of luck in the future, and damn, I sure am going to miss you all!
XOXO,
Jess
