Re: [GBW] New England Chapter

["Jeffrey Altepeter, Bookbinder" <jeff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just a quick update to let you all know that I've added a subscription link 
to the New England Chapter Blog already.  It was easier than I expected, so 
I'm sorry I didn't have it on there before yesterday's announcement.  It is 
easy to do--just click the link at the top of the right hand sidebar where 
it says "Get Email Updates, Subscribe to New England GBW by Email."  It only 
sends you one email on any given day that a new item is posted, so don't be 
afraid!  Check it out at http://negbw.wordpress.com

Christina Amato tells me that the reservations were pouring in today for the 
Paper Potluck so don't wait.

Thanks for all of the feedback everyone,
Jeff Altepeter
