Upcoming Blog Forum


The blog forum is on. I've received a few submissions, so what I'll do is post the 1st beginning on Mon. 6/16, then invite comments, responses, and discussion for a few days. Rinse and repeat. Please spread the word far and wide.

Let me emphasize here that the "submission deadline" is rolling, so feel free to send other things in any time, even after the longer posts start to go live. You can do so either via email or simply as a comment somewhere on the blog.

UPDATE: We now have 4 entries. 2 for next week (Mon. & Thurs.), then 2 the following (Mon. & Thurs. again). Keep 'em coming in.

Just a reminder that the initial, tentative deadline for submissions to our attempt at a blog forum, is this coming Friday (June 14). I've received 1 already and I'm cooking 1 up right now, so that should start us off. If you're wondering...

- Modern Medieval's Blog Forum On "what Does The Medieval And Medievalism Have To Offer To Our Modern World?"
I'm a bit late posting it here, but over at Modern Medieval, the Blog Forum is up and running, with two posts already. I hope folk will go read, comment, and participate....
