This is a good day to stay inside, revamp my website and continue to read from Edith Wharton's "Age of Innocence." I have to give some thought, too, to selecting a poem to recite for the Favorite Poems night at the Crescent Moon Cafe on June 2nd. I will ask Trevor for Susanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00142078317248769054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619321.post-903622492003-03-08T13:00:00.000-05:002003-03-08T13:00:46.950-05:00Well....we are going through yet another incarnation of the ticket2write website.

If you need me, send a message and I'll most likely respond--unless it's a Friday or Sunday (what passes for my weekend). Thanks for the invitation to help out.

Thank you all for offering your services. I trust this will be an interesting and rewarding adventure for all of us. It is nice to have an avenue for our more creative drives.

I would like some feedback from all of you on the editorial staff. If you like the logo, would you like us to make items such as mugs, teeshirts and mouse pads available to the members?

The Waste Land by T. S. Elliott is not my all time favorite, but it might be a good one to discuss. I think of it as a watershed event which marked the start of the Modernist era. Is that what you had in mind, or do you want an original poem by a member?

I will post those items to the calendar page of the e-zine now. I have been giving out the URL to people I have contacted, to give them an idea of what we have in mind. I might as well post the August and September material for temporary content.

I've scrapped most of what I have already worked on for the e-zine calendar because it was for events in the Aug, Sept and Oct range of dates. I believe I shall post the August and September work at T2W so that it is not a total loss. Also, I can still use the Oct. work in the e-zine.

Is there a t2laptop for me in the budget :)? I like diva's cd/concert review idea, although I would like to cater to an artsy/ literate audience... so please select review material wisely. Also as far as horoscopes, I'm not so sure they would have a place in a literary magazine.

I would like to see some suggestions for a subject for an interview and some more ideas. They can be big or small or totally off the wall. Toss them in for consideration and we can go with them or "adopt, adapt and improve."

I was trying to say that I believe we have great, mold-breaking ability and I really wanted to offer an idea and help out. I am a bit competitive, however, and will keep it in check. I have complete faith in Bob's ability, as well as the other members. I am sure we will not be 'same old...', bad choice of words. I apologize.

I was feeling so behind before I even started. On the subject of the horoscope, I think that is a great idea. We used to have this splendid little alternative paper here that published the most er,"colorful" off the wall horoscope I've ever read. Definitely grist for the mill.

In the interest of fairness to all who have responded, and with an eye to expanding the scope of the ticket2write e-zine, let's change the first publication date to October 1, 2002.

I know we need to follow pre-established ezine guidelines, to a degee, but I would also like to see a unique quality insted of the 'same old, same old'. Any ideas? Perhaps a monthly horriscope, something, anything. Yes, horoscopes are readily available on the web and in ink, but online sources clutter your mail and illicit advertisements.
