My tongue was firmly in cheek, so don't worry that I've lost my
marbles. I realize that there's lots more work to do, though it
actually seems possible that we'll have published all of the books
before our tenth anniversary. Let's hope I'm not jinxing it. :)

That's going to come out bold, so I don't know if that will look
right. I support the sentence case, but I'm not positive about the use
of <strong>. Let's hold off on this until we get more opinions and
I've had a chance to mull it over.
Everything else looks good. If you have the time and energy, more
power to you. You have my blessing and gratitude.
