Didn't see you at the Women's Lib yesterday - there was a great talk on Cherry Bomb Comics (http://bit.ly/2TsR) and their shop start-up, inspirational!

Absolutely no problems with any of this - I think a collaborative blog is a great idea, and the best way to really gauge the level of interest, as well as see exactly what skills etc there are in place. Do you want to set one up? I'm a member of a collaborative blog on Wordpress that works quite well. The small-scale project is what my thinking has been coming round to when talking to people - if a solid base of ideas/expertise is built up, the easier it will be to get something larger in place, but it should be something that happens organically, I agree, rather than trying to force something big to exist. The project name is another thing I've been mulling over - I've been in touch with 826 National and they're officially closed to opening new chapters, so that avenue is closed (which is understandable, given how much they have to do). But it does mean "826 London" is out as a blog name, as we don't want to imply they're involved. Hm. I'll link to this and try and scout around for some ideas!
