Future Heroes' own Anna Prince nominated
her webmaster, Jerry McEwen of Coolcats Web Strategies, as follows:
"Jerry is responsible for creating the cool things
on this site. I nominate him for 'hero' of the month."
Greetings, this is Jerry talking. I usually stay out
of the limelight, but decided to accept Anna's gracious nomination.
Now that I have the mic, who wants to hear me brag about how great
I am? Oops, I was afraid of that. In that case, I'll turn the tables
and tell you what a great job Steve atCountryMusicWebs
is doing. Steve does web sites for KMA
Records, Jean's
Artist Management and many others and all his sites look great!
Okay, back to me and my
design company, Coolcats ... We have built many sites during
the past five years and Future Heroes is one of the most
enjoyable sites we've done. I enjoy reading about all of the DJ's,
artists and producer/manager types and, as a 23-year veteran of
the music business, I wish you all the luck in the world. The music
business is tough and it's fickle, but if you believe in what you
do and can manage to put food on your table, then, by all means,
follow that dream!
