  1. @wyshynski Maybe you need one for research purposes?
  2. It's the New Jersey Devils versus LA Kings for the Stanley Cup. Totally didn't see that coming.
  3. @paperhaus I do the same thing. Then I realize that I wouldn't be looking on Etsy if I wanted to be that crafty.
  4. @JenHoward I love Scrivener, but I don't use it as much as I'd like because I work on multiple machines. (Only have it at home.)
  5. @SmartBitches It's originally French. But wondering if they are doing it as a spin on "Meredith," which is Gaelic.
  6. @DonLinn That half empty glass needs a little more scotch.
  7. @Matt_Silverman @christerickson P.S. Ignore Han Solo's bad hair and outfit. It's ALL about the swagger.
  8. @Matt_Silverman Confession: I had Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia barbie dolls when I was 7 yr old. I gave Leia an unfortunate haircut.
  9. @Matt_Silverman @christerickson Luke Skywalker wishes he was @RyanGosling. #totalwhiner
  10. "Pessimists . . . had higher death rates over a 30-year period than those who were shown optimistic." well.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/05/21/a-r…
  11. @brettbobley Clearly I need to be the program officer for that. :)
  12. @tcarmody Me too. I'm a writer first, historian second. Although I will change it up depending on audience. @dancohen
  13. @atrubek @tcarmody @dancohen We could be really old school and call it a "web pamphlet." Kidding. Does a "blessay" include reporting?
  14. @tcarmody @dancohen Why can't we just call it an "essay"? Reclaim the term. Venue doesn't matter as much as stylistic form and content.
  15. @dancohen Aside from the Atlantic, I think that NYT's Disunion blog is a great example of this. opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/category/disun…
  16. Discuss MT @dancohen "The Blessay" bit.ly/KP9MPP Not a blog post. It's Not an essay. It's a blessay. Notes on an important new genre.
  17. Woohoo! Can't wait to read it. RT @ErinHere Drum roll, please: @ABRAMSbooks' announced first printing of #OneGoodDeed...50,000! #overthemoon
  18. RT @willipmrpip: Highly appropriate for Empire Day - Queen Victoria's Journals available online bit.ly/Lt2K1E
  19. @Brendacopeland I took tap for awhile. Never sweat so much while having so much fun.
