Guestblogger welcome

Posted by Henry

We’re going to have two new guestbloggers with us over the next week; John Holbo and Belle Waring from John and Belle Have a Blog. Most CT readers will know them well already; I reckon that JABHAB and the Volokhs are the two main contenders for the coveted blog-most-linked-to-by-Timberites award. John is a philosopher at the National University of Singapore; he also blogs about literature, politics and academia. Belle covers all of the above, as well as cooking (including tasty rat anecdotes) and popular culture. She’s ABD (or AWOL) at the Classics Department at Berkeley, and is currently writing a rather good detective novel with surreal elements. Enjoy …

Noooo, ‘rather good’ is the right way to say ‘damn brilliant’.

It’s going to be a fun week; but there is going to be an over-preponderance of CT bloggers named “Jo(h)n”.

John Holbo is just about the only blogger whose long posts I read without skimming, and Belle’s tuna salad is great. Good work recruiting these two.
