OK, the mail box is filling up.
One issue.......
We had asked somewhere, that the text (Bio and photo descriptions) be kept to 150 words. Due to the number of participants we need to conserve space. We want the focus of the book to be the images of course.
Some of the text we have received is well over this limit. I must ask a favor of everyone.
If you feel you have submitted text over the 150 word limit, please edit your submission yourself, and resend it. I have to ask that you take the initiative on this as there is so much stuff now that has to be touched we cannot go threw every one and count words. At some point in the future when push comes to shove, we will notify participants individually, but right now I ask that you please use your good judgement, this will help us out quite a bit.
Also, if you are close to 150, that is ok. There are some that are quite lengthy though, those are the ones that need to be edited.
One other mention, we have been asked by some members for whom English is not their native language to edit their submissions to correct grammar and the like. We will be doing this and truly appreciate the diverse participation in this project and at RFF. We will not be editing every submission, only those we feel need some adjustments. If you have an objection to this regarding your submission, please send an email to the rff email box and we will comply with your wishes.
It looks like things are going forward quite well.
