Congrats to our new Literature editor: Beforever.

You all know him pretty well around here, and I for one am very excited to see what he'll accomplish

That's awesome, congratulations!
I figured language would be more up your street, but Flick's still holding strong (I think...) and it looks like you'll do a great job!

Great to hear this, and beforever is an utterly obvious and perfect choice to take the reins.

Congrats on the "promotion". I think we all know that you'll tend to this category with the same sort of comprehensive and nurturing attitude that you've brought to your curatorships, forum participation, and mentoring.

Thanks, Matt, for inviting me to the role and setting everything up for me. Thanks too for everybody's support.

@geshmonkey, Flick's good... I love his support of all the other quizmakers he brings to our attention. I wouldn't have it any other way. I see Literature as a personal and fun challenge precisely because I don't read as much of the classics as I used to... so this'll be a good chance to rekindle that. I'm looking forward to this!

Brilliant news!

You've held the title of most editory non-editor for quite a while, so I'm very pleased to see that you'll finally be doing it in a more official capacity.

I'm thrilled to hear this. For me, one of the hardest working and helpful members of Sporcle.

Good luck in your new role, beforever.

Any excuse for a peculiarly-named quiz:

Now he's Literature Editor, but what came before(ver)?

Thank you everyone for your support!   If you have any Literature quizzes you want me to look at  (or Vocab/Typing quizzes, as always), e-mail me any time. I'd love to check them out.

Unfortunately, I've dropped my General Knowledge and Movie Characters curatorships during this transition also. I hope someone else picks 'em soon!

An excellent choice.  Congratulations to Sporcle for landing such a hard-working and talented individual as Michael to join their editor staff.

^Thanks, all.

Now go apply to curate General Knowledge/Movie Characters. I feel bad for leaving them.
