MT goes on Hiatus…

Miner Thought was started out of a need. A need to help people. A need to be in control. A need to develop a unique voice. In reality I didn’t think it would catch on. Yet a few good projects and we got too busy for our own good. So busy that there were times when life was halted and business got in the way.

Now after a few good years it is time to let life get in the way for a change.

As of May 1st, 2011, Miner Thought will be going on hiatus for an undetermined amount of time. Maybe a few months, maybe longer. The end is – like all things in life – unknown. However this time it is not for the reason many may think. We are busier than ever. In fact I have started saying no to new clients and projects lately. And the only current thing finishing up is a new product line for Quantum Gelato – coming very soon.

The reason is much more personal and wonderful. At the not so tender age of *cough* 30-something *cough*, I am starting a new chapter in life. This spring I will become a father.

And as anyone in advertising or the visual arts will tell you – our work has a tendency to get in the way. So I have decided to take the proactive and noble approach of family over money for a while and put Miner Thought on hold. Through this experiment of a company that has given me some great clientele face-time experience in branding and design – which is where I always felt Miner Thought fit in nicely – I have really had a lot of help from friends and service providers. Not the least of which came from friend Brent Wees who has manged all of Miner Thoughts not-for-profit work to perfection. So to all the friends and clientele – thank you.

Chow for now.
