Today: Sheepshead Bites Turns Three!

We’ve got some big announcements coming in the next couple of weeks. We can’t say much yet, but it’s stuff we’re really proud of, and that I truly believe has been the culmination of three years of hard work. Before we get to that, though…

Thank you to the entire team of people who’ve helped over the years.

Thanks so much to them, and thank you, readers, for making every bit of this possible!
