BRACK: Scared early on, why I feel a certain ownership of Halloween

By Elliott Brack  | From my earliest days, I‘ve always felt a certain “ownership” of Halloween. After all, it’s my birth date.

From my earliest recollection, Halloween has always scared me. Even to this day, I have no truck to watch scary television or movies nor enjoy horror stories.  Why give time to something that makes you feel uncomfortable?

Today’s issue of GwinnettForum marks the beginning of our 18th year in business.

I retired from the Atlanta newspapers on April 1, and opened the next day an office in a friend’s extra space in Business Park in Norcross. A couple of years later, we moved offices to the former headquarters of Technology Park/Atlanta, then in unincorporated Norcross and now in Peachtree Corners. We’ve been here for 15 years.
