Antonia, Come Back!

2006_11_28azerbic.jpg
D.B. Scott over at the Canadian Magazines blog has noticed that The Star’s Antonia Zerbisias has stopped blogging. Zerbisias was an absolute blog trooper, posting frequently on this country’s often hilarious media scene.
Unlike other prominent bloggers, Zerbisias left comments back to her readers, and for that she must be commended. We’re well aware of just how tiresome sifting through angry, illiterate sometimes even hateful comments can be. We’re also well aware that despite the perks of blogging (fame, the adoration of your peers, screaming and adoring fans) it’s a lonely and tiring business. We hope that Zerbisias comes back in the new year; maybe a rotating blog with other Star writers might lessen the load. For now, we’ll just keep looking out for any changes.

    Well, she had stopped writing for the Star for several months, too, but four pieces by her have appeared in the past couple of weeks (including two in today’s edition!).
    I’m hoping that she gives herself whatever time she feels she needs in order to be comfortable writing and blogging again.

    Thanks.
    It’s all TBA at this point.
