That's what he was referring to.

Uuh, they're (we're?) putting together a collection of works, fiction pieces, poetry (I think) etc, by the Members of the Watch.
Great idea folks.

Whoa, you guys should get my mom to submit something. She's got some stories that really rock. Tho, she keeps them to herself mostly.

I haven't seen her much on here lately, Fire Daughter. Would you tell her about it? Fist says she writes really well.

We would love to have you aboard, Forest Dreamer.
Selection committee, we're going to need to sort out exactly what the selection guidelines will be... I needsome time to think and discuss with TOM C. Suggestions by PM are very welcome. Hopefully we can get this stage set up and ready to start judging submissions within the next week.

My suggestion for the editors is that they all have access to an email account - password and such. Those who want to submit send their story to this account.

No offense, but I suggested this to dragonlilly and have never heard you mention it.

He just means great minds think alike. I was thinking about a yahoo loop. Last I heard, they could be set so only the 3 committee members are members of the loop and read the posts, but others, the contributors, can post things to the loop.
I think...

I believe WB not only mentioned it but has already setup an address.
WB, if you haven't already done so I suggest you post a separate announcement with the address and also PM our selection committee about accesss requirements.
I'm guessing you have probably already performed these tasks.

We create a gmail account, and give everyone involved the password. Submissions can be stored there as attatchments. Infact, I think I'll get on it now... unless someone has a better idea.

I've heard mention of poetry being included in the anthology, but nothing definitive. Are we adding poetry to the short stories? I should say now, I'm not qualified to edit poetry. I don't know anyone who is, actually. It's so personal.
