It's been another banner week for the Brigade!
Although membership requests slowed down a bit, it's actually a good thing for two reaons:
1) It gave us the opportunity to explore new territory--a SFR Brigade web site. Thanks to Larianne Wills for the link. Though still in experimental stages, please give it a thorough shakedown and report back if you think it might serve our purposes (at least on a temporary basis). SFR Brigade Web Site
2) We're almost at maximum capacity as far as site authors here on the main site, so I have a special request (plea, cajole or arm-twisting, as applicable).
For those who haven't and don't plan to post to the blog, could you please contact me and we'll reassign your author slot to a new member. Important: You will still be a full member of the SFR Brigade, listed on the roster and encouraged to participate in all activities. If you should decide in the future that you want to post, we're reserving one floating slot for that purpose, and we'll also reassign the next available author slot to you. (Does that sound like a deal?)
