Please include the name you would like to appear in the contents listing of the fanzine. Is it your Synergy Board Name, your real name, a nickname, etc.
If more than the maximum number are submitted for a particular section then the submissions to be included will be picked out of a hat. For instance, if more than 5 posters submit items for the Leash section, then I will put all the names in a hat, and notify those that did not get picked this time. Any questions, please send to tradingstories1@yahoo.com.
Update:
Regarding copyright: Thanks to wilfmiss
Each contributor will have a copyright in their own material as soon as it is created and put into "fixed form," i.e., written down, photograph applied to paper, etc. The author/creator can mail himself or herself a copy of the document to create evidence of the date of creation. DO NOT OPEN THE MAIL WHEN IT IS RETURNED TO YOU. This will help protect the author's individual work. - Recommended.
Also, please include permission in your submission email that your work can be
included in Trading Stories with the Leaves #1 and subsequent issues.
Number of Submissions
You can submit as many items as you want, but for fairness sake, only one item will appear from any poster in each issue. If only 2 people submit recipes, but 30 people submit concert reviews, and one of the recipe people is also a concert review person, then that person’s recipe would be included, and not the concert review.
Name
Please emphasize how you want your name to appear. For instance, just write, “I want my name to appear as . . .” and fill in the blank.
Theme
No Code is the theme. When you submit your work, please include a sentence, “This relates to No Code because . . . “and fill in the blank. If your work doesn’t directly relate to No Code, be creative, and make something up. Now, as the gatekeeper, I may be slacking in the No Code relationship department, but I love word count tools. If you submit work, and it’s more than the maximum number of words, I will ask you to edit it.
Thank you for your interest, and patience!
