Writing (and Righting) History on Wikipedia
Harris' page hasn't been vandalized again, but it has remained far from complete. The criticism and praise of Harris were irrelevant, and the actual information on his life was minimal.
So, I decided to edit and expand the Joel Chandler Harris Wikipedia page as judiciously as possible, drawing from diverse, respected sources.
For a long time I felt uncomfortable editing Wikipedia on a topic where I have such an inherent, genetic bias. But, I realized a few things once I started editing:
- Editing Wikipedia is a lot of fun.
- No matter how many times we link to the New Georgia Encyclopedia article and no matter how questionable the source, folks are going to use the Wikipedia page.
- Short of a Disney release of Song of the South and my subsequent interview on Oprah, this is probably the broadest way for us to execute our mission effectively.
- My work is only the start!

Georgia Theater Accepting Donations for Renovation — Cool or Uncool?
(Photo courtesy of neuftoes)
The theater, located in Athens, is now accepting donations through the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation to help offset construction costs. If the commenters are to be believed (and given the history of commenters at the AJC, this is at best hazardous), this partnership has gotten some major panties in a bunch. Recently, there have been a few for-profit businesses (Paste, Wordsmiths (RIP)) that have asked for donations to keep themselves alive. The mixing of profit with non-profit tactics really ticked some people off. Yet we, as a non-profit, ask for donations to stay alive all the time. Really, it's pretty much all we do. And to date, not one person has yelped, "Well, I NEVER!" in response. Now, I know there are inherent differences (like tax-exemption). But how severe are those differences from the viewpoint of the Average Joe who's happy to see both the Wren's Nest and the Georgia Theatre in his neighborhood? Should he not financially support the theater because it's for-profit, even though the end result is essentially the same for him? I know the simple logic is "Well derr, Amelia -- you support the theater by giving them money to see shows they put on. Idiot." But that's hard to do when the theater is all "non-functional" and "charred." In the interest of full disclosure, I have donated my hard-earned pennies to for-profits, but not all that asked. And with a lot more deliberation than when I've donated to non-profits. What do y'all think? Would you donate to the Georgia Theatre?Categories: Good Questions, Nonprofit Management, Paste Magazine, Transparency, Trickery | Tags: athens, georgia, georgia theater, georgia theatre, georgia trust, Historic Preservation,
Arborguard and the Wren’s Nest — Scratchin’ Backs
For a while now we've been in cahoots (dropped some terminology, sorry) with several local businesses. In exchange for their services -- at a free or discounted price because we're a wee and adorable non-profit -- we put their logo on all sorts of things: our brochure, our t-shirts, our... brochure!
Please help us welcome our newest friend to the party.
Arborguard, a tree specialist company "For people who love trees" (me! I love trees!), has generously offered to do greatly discounted work on our yard, which is pretty darn nice. It's also important because oh man, with two and quarter acres, we have a lot of trees, and many of them are terrifying. It's a race against the clock -- one in particular is just aching to fall on some sweet old blue hair. This is similar to what Rentokil does for us and our pest control, and we all know how much we need that service. So thanks, Arborguard. This is the beginning of a beautiful working business relationship.Categories: Kudzu and other bizarre plants, Nonprofit Management, Transparency | Tags: arborguard, tree service,

Wren’s Nest in the Atlanta Business Chronicle and Other Notes
The highlight is definitely this photo of Lain and his all-child posse. Since it's an understandable question based on the photo -- no, he did not father all of them.
I'm going to assume that most of you rubes don't have subscriptions to the Atlanta Business Chronicle, so you can read the first couple paragraphs online or you can glance at this .pdf that we just stumbled across.
2. It's Ms. Nannie's birthday today!
Ms. Nannie's daughter called to remind us of this special day (it's totally on the calendar, derr) and to let us know that Ms. Nannie didn't want anyone to pay her any mind. Too late, Ms. Nannie. Help us wish Ms. Nannie a happy birthday! Fan mail and comments are encouraged.
3. Our plea for Wren's Nest Publishing Company students is featured in Creative Loafing's excellent blog, Fresh Loaf! Thanks to Thomas Wheatley for that one. Who knew Twitter could be used for good?

Metro Atlanta Arts & Culture Coalition — Keep The Dream Alive
Karen Beavor, President & CEO Georgia Center for Nonprofits
Mary Pat Crouch, Vice President Coxe Curry & Associates
Penny McPhee, President & Trustee Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation
Shirley Mitchell, Senior VP, Market Development Bank of America All of the speakers were effective, encouraging, and (very importantly) concise. The audience then shared their own success stories (following one man who, apparently after wandering into the wrong meeting and tuning out the entire presentation, spoke about traffic issues and asked us to make a change. Buddy, I'm flattered you think I have that kind of pull!). Not everything was applicable to the Wren's Nest (our HR department is actually a squirrel out back), but what didn't apply to us was made up for by the $1 beers, which always apply to us. And let me tell you, arts and culture folks really know how to knock 1 or 2 back. But enough about us. We want to hear from you. Please, choose a question below and answer it in the comments.

Free Tickets to the Wren’s Nest!
Pretty cool, right? I mean, anyone could make it! And that purple -- it's almost like someone ran out of regular copy paper and plunked that down without thought. At least the information on it isn't bulky. Oh wait.
In short, we needed something that would actually reflect the Wren's Nest, as well as look official (instead of counterfeit).
Check out our new "Free Admission" tickets!
Why, is that the Wren's Nest's logo? It is! And those look like the colors we use everywhere! I wonder what the back looks like!
Wow! There's that logo again! And what approachable text -- it's almost like a professional put it together (thanks, Lauren). It even has useful information!
The branding guidelines (.pdf) are also great because anytime any sort of media source wants to talk about us or we're thrown in a brochure, we can actually have consistency. It's been a long time coming.
In short, an improvement. What do y'all think?
