I echo the lament above about losing Blueprint and Domino. Ugh. I was also a fan of Cottage Living which is also defunct. Sorry you lost your job because of the downturn.

I enjoy your blog a lot and keep us posted on how a creative person survives this downturn. Just got my John Robshaw catalog yesterday, thanks to a recommendation from you.

I am really sorry to hear about Domino! I only just started subscribing to it several months ago after finding you. I can only imagine how disappointed you must be and it's got to be extremely tough on all of your friends at the magazine as well. It's such a great magazine. This economy is really hurting everyone. :(

Oh my goodness this means you lose your job – I'm so sorry.

Hang in there – silver lining and all that.

I agree, I think your content is really good – go get some sponsors!

By the way, I hope I'm not overstepping my bounds in saying that. Has just occurred to me that I might have been a bit bossy-sounding (not unusual).
Yours is one of my most favoritest blogs — just thinking it could also be outrageously fabulous while paying for your renovations.

Miss Elliott: aside from the fact that you are an incredible resource for design tidbits and myriad unique sources (look at your posts on plaid blankets!) you are also renovating a darling house from the ground up. Make that more of a focus, documenting the process a bit more, and add some sponsors. You are very well-poised to spin this into something fabulous, more of a site than a blog.
Do not despair! It's terrible news, and I feel badly for you and all of the other talent behind the magazine, but I have no doubt you'll pull through.
