Baron Master Arundel the Falconer, Middle Kingdom Minister of Arts and Sciences, has asked me to serve my Kingdom as the new editor for Artes Draconis, the quarterly arts and sciences journal of the Middle Kingdom. I am thrilled by this challenge, and I am eager to get started. However, I have _no_ submissions in my files that I can use, and I need to get started on producing an issue. Needless to say, there will not be a November issue...I am hoping to have one ready by January. I am doing a wide-range blast here in a call for submissions. Since this is a Middle Kingdom arts and sciences journal, I would prefer submissions from Middle Kingdom residents, but I am enthusiastic about any kind of submissions from anyone. I would prefer electronic submissions please whenever possible. I can accept Word 97 and 2000, WordPerfect, text files, rtf. I can accept bitmaps, jpegs, tif and gif files. If I can't open it, I have geek friends who probably can :-) If your document uses special characters (ALA character set/diacritical marks) please enclose the font file as well, I may not have that on my machine already, and PLEASE submit a hard copy of what the document should look like, so I can be sure to make it correct. What can I use? ANYTHING. Here are some suggestions, not an exhaustive list: how-to's, A&S documentation on a project, class notes, bibliographies of source books in a field (annotated bibs are best), redacted recipes, book reviews, original artwork (cover art should be 8.5 x 11, camera-ready please), filler art. Subject matter can include, but is not limited to: woodworking, embroidery, calligraphy and illumination, jewelry, tent-making, ger making (howdy Horde bros), costuming, herbcraft, neat web sources for SCA page designers, sources for copyright-free art, articles on running events, being a royal retainer, stories of gallant deeds, poetry, Middle Kingdom history, pewtercraft, weaving, cool kids' activities at events, articles on what it means to be Royalty or other Peer, music, dance, anything... This is YOUR journal...think of what you'd like to see in it, look at your talents and what you can offer, and share it with me! Copyright note: Any submissions should not contain graphics or pictures from sourcebooks still in copyright. If you need to, trace the drawing in your own hand, or give complete bibliographic citations in your article instead. I am intending on taking Artes Draconis into the electronic media in 2001 and make it more widely available at no cost. Paper copy submissions will still be available for those who prefer, but there will be a cost for printing and postage. Cost will be $8 for a year's subscription (4 issues), checks and money orders should be payable to "SCA, Inc.--Middle Kingdom" and sent to me at the following address: Judith Kirk 1106 Egleston Avenue Kalamazoo, MI 49001-3837 (616) 385-4717 You can email submissions to me at: judith.a.kirk@wmich.edu I have a couple of people who have contacted me for issues and subscription information. If you are on any of these lists, I ask for your continued indulgence while I straighten out the files and see what it is I've exactly got in the boxes-o-stuff. I _will_ get back to you, and feel free to nudge me if you want an update. Yours in joyful service, Mistress Siobhan O'Neill, CL, CDH, CW, CPF =================================================================== To unsubscribe from this list, send email to with a blank Subject: line and unsubscribe scribes in the body of the message.
