 WAITING LIST: We encourage people who want to participate to add your name, even after we reach the 20 mark. Experience shows that the line-up is "in flux" at the beginning.

The book page format will be the same as for the Asemic collaborations (1-3) - 2 sheets folded A4 - ie 8 sides. You will need to make 20 copies and post to each person on the list - the addresses will be added to this discussion once we have got confirmation from all the participants. Again - these collaborations only work if everyone commits and endures!

Hi Cathey Bayless, the Vispo Service Desk is understaffed during the holidays. Thanks for joining Cheryl's Collaborative Book Group and for your interest in the current visual poetry books that are being created and assembled.

Both editions are currently are underway and we have enough contributors. BUT some spots could open - Cheryl or I will tell you ASAP.

Also we might open a third edition.

So I will add you to the list, and we'll figure out how to involve you as soon as we can. Again, thanks for your involvement!

I just want to make sure that EVERYONE involved in the collaborative books is still taking part.  People are starting to post and we want to keep hiccups to a minimum please. I will post this comment in a few places so hopefully everyone will get this message - good Wednesday to you all :-) X 

I'm still taking part.  I am a bit on the drag as a result of so much activity with family over the holidays but will get to it SOON. X Rebecca

I`m in... begining the pages after the holidays

still in and  half way finished. cheers!

YES YES!!!!!!!YES SVETLANA PESETSKAYA!!)))))))))

No kidding. It floors me that anyone can be done. Without the reasonable deadline, we slow pokes would be sunk.

These look supercool again, Svetlana!
