As I sit down to write my final article for the Sarasota Herald Tribune after 15 years as a guest columnist, I find myself filled with a mix of emotions. First and foremost, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of you, my readers, for accompanying me on this journey. Your support, encouragement, and feedback have been invaluable to me.
What brought me the greatest joy was the opportunity to share compelling topics on the domestic and global stage that affect us all. My intention has been to bring a neutral viewpoint and shed light on relevant information, striving to present a well-rounded picture of the economic landscape.
Writing my column has been a labor of love and sharpened my writing skills. The next chapter of my writing will focus on topics I thoroughly enjoy, history and sociology. Join me on this next exciting chapter. I love to hear your thoughts and perspective and will continue to email my essays. You can also visit my website, docwerlin.com to browse a wide array of topics that may interest you.
In closing, I want to thank some of the people who have been of immense help. I developed a wonderful working relationship with my editor at the Herald Tribune, Danny Dejarnette. My longtime friend and editor, Lori Kayser has been indispensable. Lastly, the creator of my website, Mike Matejevich, has brought a very high level of creativity to my work. Needless to say, I am very grateful to all three of them.
Thank you for being part of this journey, for reading my words, and for embracing the power of information so each of us can make the best possible decisions for our families, communities, society and world.
With gratitude,
Doc
