We’re back! Well, by “we,” I mean “me,” Jon Swerens, proprietor of this place called The Good City.

I’ve let this project lay fallow for far too long. So you can be on the lookout for some fresh stories and commentary very soon.

In the meantime, you can befriend or like The Good City over on Facebook.Similar Posts:

(Jon) If you’re interested, you can head over to my personal blog and listen to my first professionally recorded song.

It’s called “River,” and I think producer and friend Tim Bushong did a great job making me sound like a good singer.

You can also listen to the song on my MySpace page.

My goal for 2008: Record and produce a CD of my own music.Similar Posts:

(Jon) Former Fort Wayne resident Andrew Sikora thinks enough of The Good City to list it as No. 7 of his Top 7 of ’07 blogs of the year.

That’s very nice of him, and we appreciate the confirmation of what we’re trying to do here.Similar Posts:

The Good City is about promoting things that are good for our city. Sometimes that includes shameless plugs. In this case a must-see documentary and a semi-must-see play. Thanks for indulging me.
