Interview with Nathan Wrigley and Paul Charlton

Paul Charlton has a large and fast growing YouTube WordPress tutorial channel (called WP Tuts) filled with high quality video walkthroughs - it's something that you should check out.

Terrible analogy ahead - you've been warned...

Last year I grew some tomatoes (I did warn you)! I was careful to pick out the correct soil. They received my care and attention. Each day I watered them and pruned off the stems that were not needed. It took months. In the end I was rewarded with a bumper crop of delicious tomatoes.

This year I planted more tomatoes, but I was hopeless with them. Everything from the soil I put them in, to the time that I spent on their care was meagre compared to last year. Guess what, they failed. The tomatoes were small and tasteless!

So what's this got to do with Paul Charlton's WordPress YouTube Channel and WP Tuts website I hear to mutter? Well, nothing and something.

You see it's all about the fruit. The fruit of the vine and the fruit of your labour.

Paul has spent hours and hours producing quality WordPress content. Like my first batch of tomatoes, he's sweated the details... produced thoughtful content and edited his content beautifully. The fruit of all this labour is... success. A successful YouTube channel with a growing subscriber count (I won't bother writing how many subscribers he's got, because it is guaranteed to be higher when you read this). It is in short, a testament to his labour, his hard work. His YouTube channel is producing great tomatoes and people just love to eat them!
