Stars and Moon



Come and Join the Moon Mist Valley Experience — Expected Release, Summer 2010!

Published by — Donald R. Anderson
Edited by — Nikki Quismondo
Copy Editor — Marjorie Banks
Assistant Layout Editor — Marie J. Ross

Submission review has started.

Basically we want works to fit the themes of the sections, at least a little bit, of Moon, Mist, and Valley and your interpretation of those symbols.

For written works, please submit in the body of the email, or as a rtf (rich text file), or as a Microsoft Word Document, or as a Microsoft Works Document.

For images, please submit attached as a jpg, tif, png, bitmap, gif, or Photoshop file.

Those are the only formats that will be accepted, no pdfs, no Word Perfect files, none that aren't from the previous list. If you must, you may submit a file to Donald at in Adobe InDesign, though it must be saved from version CS2, or else be exported as an InDesign Interexchange file.

Font will be Minion Pro, size 10pt or 11pt, titles in bold, author names in italics, with body of poem in roman (no bold or italics in other words... this does not mean the font by that name) unless used for emphasis for just portions of the work.

Include 4 to 6 lines of biography information (a bio photo as well would be a plus) about yourself, written in 3rd person, which should tell us your previous places of publication, your education or other background, possibly your interests and current projects and, if you wish, "for-all" contact info.

Then you also send us the "for editor only" contact info such as mailing address, phone number, and email address, for business purposes. I will be mailing you proof copies of the works in the editing stages of the book, for you to make sure any corrections, and editorial adjustments for fitting to the layout, that I make and the overall appearances, are all satisfactory to you on paper for you to mail back with a statement of affirmation that the piece is your original work and that you understand the terms of the publishing collaboration. NEW: instead of dealing with the few pennies per book sold that last time only added up to less than ten dollars per person total Donald decided to front the cost of getting a contributor’s copy to each contributor as their payment. We have no marketing, so we will rely on ourselves to get the word out, and may be very limited unless media discovers us. Please help us make as many connections as we can in this area so that we may have the opportunity to become more than just a small self-publishing collaborative.

Site Under Construction... more coming soon!
