THE SBL FORUM has posted a number of interesting short articles this month, as Mark Goodacre (here and here and here) and Torrey Seland have already noted. I haven't had the chance to read them all (I'm having the chance to do precious little reading outside things directly relevant to The Book right now), but here are some that look interesting:

by Cheryl A. Kirk-Duggan
"By getting to know yourself better, from the inside out, you will become a better writer."

Journal of Biblical Literature Today
by Susan E. Haddox
Nearly half of the articles published in recent years utilize newer methodologies, including narrative, ideological, and sociological approaches

NOTE (13 May): Sorry, somehow this post got demoted to draft status and disappeared for a while. Can't say I'm impressed with Blogger's new setup so far. It seems prone to this sort of mixup.
