emilygouldmakeover.jpg Since Jessica Coen broke up with Nick Denton to cozy up to the older, more father figure-ish Graydon Carter at Vanity Fair, 50% of the editor’s chairs at Gawker have been empty.

Emily Gould introduced herself today as Coen’s replacement. Apparently the editor position at Gawker comes with a makeover and everything.

Hello, my name is Emily Gould. If you’re anything like the Daily Intelligencer, you know “virtually nothing” about me, and, much as I’d like to keep it that way, my new slavedrivers have encouraged me to tell you a little bit about myself. Sooo. Monday was my last day as an associate editor at Hyperion Books, which might lead you to think that all those Unsolicited columns I wrote were based somewhat on my experiences there. Au contraire! I am actually a remarkable fabulist — hey, don’t forget I’m also 50% responsible for a book about teenage witches — and I based all that stuff on crazy dreams I had.

Gould has her own blog called Emily Magazine that will presumably be put on hold while she is writing for Gawker.
