Getting started

I'll get us started with a selection and then we can take turns choosing — alphabetically? (That would make Leslie next). We can decide as a group how often we want to make a new pick. Once a month? Every five or six weeks? Whoever picks the reading should be in charge of getting the discussion started by posting a few observations/questions and then everyone else can jump in with comments/posts. I don't think we need to be concerned with defining "novella." We can just agree that the focus of the blog is short works — say, under 150 pages? — although that should be negotiable from time to time. Anything I'm forgetting?
