Please welcome a new AustenBlogger
Heather L. has agreed to join the staff of AustenBlog. We could not be more delighted, as she is a knowledgeable Janeite, a talented writer, and very funny. Please welcome her!
The Editrix won’t be around much the next few days, as she is trying to get caught up on a few non-blogging writing projects, but the AustenBlog Cub Reporters will be around, and they have all been issued official Cluebats of their own, so keep your noses clean if you know what’s good for ya.

***standing ovation***

Thank you! I’m quite honored and excited to be on board.
At present I’m tiptoeing around behind the scenes, learning how it all works and hoping not to break anything. Dorothy is looking askance at me.

Hello, Heather L.! Welcome! Are you the one who runs the Northanger Abbey site?
If we have articles, photos, clips, etc. that we would like to send do we still send it to editor@austenblog.com or a different e-mail address?
February 27th, 2007 at 11:54 am
Hi Sylvia — yes, Solitary Elegance is my own web site.
All contributors should continue to send information to the AustenBlog address; that hasn’t changed.

Congratulations Heather! *claps*
February 27th, 2007 at 1:38 pm
Good news indeed!! I’ll look forward to reading your posts Heather.
February 27th, 2007 at 4:53 pm
Darn it Tony A! You just had to go and do the standing ovation while I was sick and not reading. Oh well.
Congrats Heather L. I’ve always enjoyed your comments.

Wonderful news!!! Your comments are always interesting. Very happy for you! So, what are you going to spike the rooibos with next? Just as long as you don’t get all wobbly with that cluebat, girl…have fun tiptoeing around Dorothy.

Heather, when can we expect to see your bio and portrait up on the Staff page? Soon, I hope.
In the past, I noticed that you were quick to serve even a short acknowledgement to some of us who you probably judged deserved the notice. I thank you for your warm heart.
Welcome, Rookie! (Being the rookie, are you going to be placed beneath Dorothy, or will the poor thing be bumped down to the bottom again? Aha! No wonder you have to tippy-toe around her.)

Awww … *blushes*
The picture + bio are coming soon. As for my status: I may have to wear the equivalent of a freshman beanie (mob cap?) in addition to Spam Sump Duty.

And keeping odds hours too. We are in the same time zone, you know. And I thought I was the only one… not the time zone, the odd hours.
