"I am 3/4ths Canadian, and one 4th New Englander - I had ancestors on both sides in the Revolutionary war." - Elizabeth Bishop

Those Mysterious Numbers!...

Since the EB100 Blog became fully active (on 19 March 2010) we have received 5,683 visits from 3,720 people living in 85 countries. Something in excess of a thousand of you have paid us the compliment of making return visits! The mind boggles...

We're enormously grateful for your interest and support. As the start of the centenary year approaches, we would like to make this place as informative, useful, and pleasant to visit as we can. To that end we welcome your comments on every aspect of what we're doing. What would you like to see more of? What might we do just as well (or even better) without? Please feel free to make your suggestions at the end of this entry.

We also encourage you to submit your own "First Encounter" for our Monday feature -- Elizabeth Bishop's writing enters people's lives in very different and often intriguing ways, and we'd like to learn more about them. Please send them to bishopcentenary-"at"-gmail.com (and please replace the -"at"- with the @ sign when you write us -- we're attempting to avoid being harvested for spam).

Once again, many thanks! -- JB
