On the off chance that some people might be interested in hearing from me when a story of mine runs or I do something else of potential note, I've added an email sign-up box over there to the right. (If you're on RSS, jump on over to the home page of nancyscola.com to have a look.) I made use of Aarron Walter's excellent tutorial on how to use Ajax to create a form that updates without refreshing the page. It's pretty slick, I think. If you'd like to try the form without actually signing up to get email updates from me, just enter something like test@test.com and I'll delete it out of the database.

Of course, I'd prefer that you actually enter in your actual address. It's safe with me, I swear. I promise to never abuse it and only use it to send the very occasional note on what I've been up to. And, of course, you have the option to unsubscribe whenever you'd like.
