So much better than another Cosmo quiz!

Via Jezebel, a link to a new women's history magazine, sadly titled "HerStoria." The title may be awful, but the concept is great for history and genealogy nerds like me. Here's how the magazine is described on its website:
HerStoria magazine explores the past to discover how the other half lived, telling the story of ordinary – and extraordinary – women. We’ll bring you opinions about the fairer sex from across the centuries, and investigate the ways in which women responded and lived their lives.
I'm listening to Jane Dunn's Elizabeth and Mary: Cousins, Rivals, Queens on audiobook right now (for the second time) and am coming close to the moment when Elizabeth of England finally authorizes the execution of Mary, Queen of Scots. It's riveting. I'll be checking out the "HerStoria" website to see what kind of features they share and who their contributors are as the magazine gets up and running.
