Not really Jeff
Jeff Carter has posted the Biblical Studies Carnival for May at his blog, thatjeffcarterwashere. As he says, “there are thrills and spills and delights around every new corner.” It is indeed a carnival feast for all the senses. He includes several podcasts, lots of images, tweets and even a little fake news. (Unfortunately the headline “Bibleman Set To Appear in Gritty Reboot” is not fake).
Jim West returned to Carnival Form with his “The June Avignonian Carnival of ‘May Biblical Studies End of the Academic Year’ Goodness.” Cassandra Farrin had to drop out for the June Carnival, so Jim will be the official carnival next month. Jim also offers this encouragement to inactive Bibliobloggers: start Posting again.
The next few carnivals will be hosted by:
- June 2017 (Due July 1) – Jim West, @drjewest
- July 2017 (Due August 1) – Reuben Rus, Ayuda Ministerial/Resources for Ministry
- August 2017 (Due September 1) – Jason Gardner, eis doxan
- October 2017 (November 1) – Doug Chaplin, @dougchaplin
- November 2017 (December 1) – Jim West, SBL Edition, @drjewest
- December 2017 (January 1) – Jennifer Guo, @jenniferguo
I have included a link to the site hosting as well as a twitter account so you can nominate posts during the month by sending them directly to the host. If you do not have a twitter account, contact the host via their blog. I would love to get a volunteer for October 2017, [Edit: Thanks to Doug Chaplain for stepping in for October.]
If you are a long range planner, you could volunteer for 2018. Please email me (plong42 at gmail.com) or direct message on Twitter (@plong42). You can also leave a comment here with your contact info and I will get back to you.
