Salaams and hello, dear MMW readers,

Welcome to our new site!

I’m excited to announce to you that Muslimah Media Watch has moved as of today.  You can now find us here at http://www.muslimahmediawatch.org/.  Our archives will stay up at our old Patheos site, but after today, all new content (as well as our archives up to this point) will be posted at this new site alone.

Being on our own again will give us back more control over our image, advertising, and other issues, which many of our writers and readers have been asking for.  The new site will be undergoing some changes in the next little while, so please be patient with us as we iron out our new look and get settled into our new online home!

Many thanks to Farah Kashem, who has been in charge of the transition, for her work on developing the new website and to Dilshad Ali, the Managing Editor of the Patheos Muslim Channel, for her support during our time at Patheos.

We’ll also have a few other changes over the next little while, including new writers and new content, so you can stay tuned for that.

I also want to mention one more thing.  Although I still officially hold the title of Editor-in-Chief at MMW, it is Tasnim, MMW’s Associate Editor, who has been running the show almost singlehandedly since last March.  She stepped in when I just wasn’t able to handle the blog along with my academic commitments and other issues, and I am eternally grateful for her work during this time.  I will likely be taking over again in the new year, but until then, a huge thank you to Tasnim for stepping in as Acting Editor-in-Chief this year.

And thanks to all of you for continuing to read and follow MMW!  We look forward to seeing you at our new home.
