[CBW_Exec] FW: Changes to CBW page

[Rebecca Mlynarczyk]

Hi Shannon and All,

Thanks for asking Sylvester to work on these items. I'm especially grateful
for the last item, the reminder to work on the search terms so that the JBW
page will easily pop up. All of my recent searches for "Journal of Basic
Writing" have been in vain.

I share Shannon's enthusiasm for the blog. Thanks so much, Liz!

> Liz: I LOVE the blog! It looks wonderful and it really is so easy to
> navigate. Loaded with fabulous information. Thank you SO much for doing
> this! What a great service to the organization.
>
>  Got my butt in gear to get revision suggestions to Sylwester (for the
> website). I see these two spaces as working together already, but I’d love
> for us to chat some over the coming about how to make the best use of the
> relationship. I’m new to blogs and totally excited about ‘em now! But still
> pretty ignorant there.
>
> All: I’m sharing the changes I sent to Sylwester to be added to the CBW
> pages, and I suspect those will be ready in the next couple of weeks. Any
> other updates/suggestions would be appreciated.
>
> I’m thinking it might be quite useful to duplicate some of the info at the
> blog. What do you think, Liz? Are these additions others can help with? I’m
> so new to all this. Changes to the website are cumbersome, so changes are
> often a little slower. Quick with blogs, right Liz?
>
> On the CBW Workshop: Hannah and I are visiting soon and will begin sharing
> a flurry of drafts with you again in the next couple of weeks.

> Thanks!
