Who is Anthegone?
Hello. My name is Anthony Newson aka Anthegone and from an early age, I’ve wanted to learn how computers work, how to replace computer hardware, draw, paint, play music, and enjoy games. What I found great interest in later in life, was not only graphic design but also programming. Strategy plays a key role in many of the tasks we choose to face and it is the pre-planning to planning phases which allow for errors to be discovered and removed.
I have absolutely no formal training whatsoever, as in no college or technical schooling. This does not mean I thumb my nose at post-secondary education as I tried to invent every excuse in the book to force myself to avoid school religiously. Pretty much everything I learned was observed on the job or through reading and good old trial and error. This is why I wish to share my experiences with you so hopefully, you can learn from my mistakes.
What can you expect from Anthegone?
- News pertaining to events, startups, promotions, discount deals, and more

Stretching it a bit
Every once in a while you might see a post about sports, finance, or something that comes to my mind. I also want to try out short stories and maybe even really short webcomics. Time will tell but I have always wanted to write my own comic book.
