We at LHB are so grateful to
Sarah Barringer Gordon for joining us as a guest blogger these past weeks. She has
responded to common queries about
legal historical publishing, opened up
a conversation about the
entry-level hiring market, reminded us of the
joys of reading outside of our subject areas, and much more!
Readers have responded so
enthusiastically to her posts that we have invited her to stay on as a
sort of
advice columnist in residence -- someone to respond to questions
about everything from applying to graduate school to publishing a
third or fourth book.
She is doing this for nothing -- a
peppercorn consideration, as they say in contract law -- and offers her
advice with the proverbial grain of salt. With a nod to advice columnists past ("
Dear Abby," "
Dorothy Dix"), we will title these
occasional posts "
Ms. Peppercorn Considers."
If you have a question that you'd like to see addressed on the blog, send a message to the blog
email address.
