Happy Birthday Assay

Here at the Brevity blog, we like to boast that we are the single best resource for all things nonfiction, but we are boasting a lot more softly these days, sort of whispering actually, because the new website Assay — a magazine, blog, pedagogical resource, research hub — is doing such a stellar job.  Assay just completed its first year and has published an Annual Report outlining what has been accomplished and great plans for the coming year.

Hint: Blog reports from NonfictioNOW, an exploration of Best American Essays (both critical and statistical), more syllabi and topic lists for classroom use.

Someone’s breathing down our neck. And we couldn’t be happier.
