My vision of the future for Long Time Coming is various websites devoted to their specific items of interest, ranging all across the spectrum. As you might have gathered from the material on my sites, I am somewhat of an archivist; I don't need the information, but I want it readily available. As of now, Long Time Coming: Dock Boggs and Long Time Coming: Pretty Boy Floyd are the only two available. Other Long Time Coming sites have already been dreamed up and are only the appropriate free time away from fruition.Interested in one of the other Long Time Coming sites?
