[…] and nobody should keep his/her admiration for someone else hidden: ever since I wrote this dithyrambic piece about Emily’s blog, she has been consistently checking here for new material, commenting on every other post, and […]

This is what I love about reading blogs … suddenly the world opens up to another good read! Off I skip to read Emily’s blog in anticipation of having numerous delightful chocolate fixes.

M — There’s an outfit called blurb.com that does this. I haven’t yet managed to download the software that lets you set up the book, nor do I know the cost. But I’ll let you know as I find out. xo, BL

Actually, this was my 7th goal for 2007: produce an integral pdf version for the mandarine and absidea blogs. I am not sure how it is done — I’ll tell you when I know.

What a great project! I wonder if there’s a way to have a year’s worth of blog posts properly printed out and put together. I’d like to read someone’s output in that form. You’re right about Emily, who’s a gem.

Jordan, Charlotte and litlove: let’s setup an Emily Barton fan club. We’d sell T-shirts and mugs, and we could probably cut a deal with Willy Wonka for a very special Telecommuter Talk collector design.

litlove: you want the freudian trut about your ending up being associated with madeleines? Well, my mother teaches French lit, so here you go.

Froshty: I second Emily’s hint — I’d love to read more from you.

Ian: isn’t it amazing how so many people are proud to be Emily’s whatever-they-are (i.e. you - brother; us - readers; them - authors)

Emily is my older sister and I have been perpetually in awe of her since I started eating solid food (she taught me how to discretely feed brussel sprouts to the dog). She has made her mark in the big bad publishing world and is now kicking butt in cyber-space. Proud to be her brother.

Emily’s definitely real. She’s my sister and I taught her everything she knows. Ha, ha, just kidding. But she did worship me when she was about 4. It’s so gratifying to read words about one’s sister that are so full of praise. You GO, Emily. Love, yer sis, Forsyth
