Way back in 2004, I created a labor of love about a once-famous, long-forgotten cartoon character. His name was (and is) Scrappy, so I called it Scrappyland.
I launched the site in January of 2005 and added a substantial amount of new material in August of that year. Then I barely touched it. The site just sat there, but I knew it continued to be read, since I got regular e-mails from people who discovered it while researching Scrappy.
Scrappyland may have been dormant, but my interest in Scrappy never wavered. I continued to uncover new facts about him and acquire additional pieces of Scrappyana. I just didn’t do much with most of what I found except to enjoy it myself.
But now, at long last, I’m going to update Scrappyland again. Frequently, I hope: I’ve converted the whole site into a blog format, so it’ll be much easier to manage. And I have a lot to share.
All the material we’ve ever published is still here–use the links on the left and right to burrow through it. (If you need an introduction to Scrappy, here’s a good place to start.)
Twitter friends: Follow @scrappyland and I’ll alert you to new stuff as we post it.
I know I’m going to have fun with Scrappyland again. I hope you have fun reading it.
