I just wanted to announce that we will be hosting an Asian History Carnival at the Frog in a Well: China weblog on October 10th.

The Thirteenth Asian History Carnival is now up over at my personal weblog Muninn! In addition to the usual selection of blog postings I have added a section to the carnival introducing a few online resources or references that might be of use to those with an interest in Asian history.

I will be hosting the thirteenth installment of the Asian History Carnival at Muninn on the evening of April 21st. Please make your submissions by noon the 21st, US Eastern time. See the carnival’s homepage for more information. You can nominate postings here or simply tag them with the Delicious tag: http://del.icio.us/tag/ahcarnival/

This is a “dump”: all the Asia related stuff I’ve saved over the last…. two months? Anyway, nobody else has blogged about it, so I thought I’d toss it out there. I hope to resume more … measured blogging soon.

Dave at Peking Duck has more.

There was one, and only one, usable submission through blogcarnival.com:

The Bizarre Jokester presents The Niihau Incident posted at Amazingly Bizarre

The rest of it was Kung-fu, vitamin spam and Feng-shui. I’m partially to blame, of course: Having failed to twist enough arms to produce a host, I put off announcing and begging for posts too long. As a result, I’m forced to do this more or less myself, with the stuff that I would have forwarded to whoever volunteered…. Needless to say, if I miss anything interesting, by all means nominate them. And, of course, if you’re interested in hosting, even in the distant future (which, in blogging terms, is six months or more), let me know. NOW, please.
