+        <strong>It's official!</strong> 
+        I'm very pleased to announce that Notebook.ai has partnered with Gremlin Services! After
+        very strong  communication (<em>mostly gestures</em>) over the past several years, Gremlin
+        Services has agreed to integrate their spectacular wordsmithery into Notebook.ai.
+      </p>
+      <p>
+        As of today, you can now enjoy the full gremlin experience we've all come to love directly from the forums.

+      </p>
+      <p>
+        Starting tomorrow (<em>April 2<sup>nd</sup></em>), the gremlin experience will also expand to all of your
+        worldbuilding pages, timelines, and documents. You'll be able to enjoy the wonderful experience you're having
+        now no matter where you go. Integrations for your email, messenger, and augmented reality goggles are also
+        coming soon.
