Where should we send our details? Also, is the collaborative effort going to count? I have my own article in there anyway, I was just wondering.

I volunteer to be a bench-mark, if a handful of crappy limericks count, then so does half a paragraph of nonsensical claptrap in the collaborative story - it's an all or nothing situation really (I'm still bitter that the premature ejaculation scene was cut...ask Ellen if she wants any raunchy mills and boon).

My whole story involving an ejaculation was cut out.

Also, as we will be providing copies of the book to authors, we will need address information
for each writer who would like a copy. Could you please arrange for each author to send us this
information?
Many thanks,

Chris: I thought the Peta story was hilarious, it just wouldn't fit the 'family friendly' criteria of the book. I personally hate censorship of any kind, but it really wasn't our call.
Everyone else: Please send your mailing info to 'emoriyama' at 'seaside-press.com' and cc the 'tales.from.earth' gmail address. I suggest including your real name and whatever name you submitted the work under.
If you need any last minute changes, let me know by 5pm (EST) today, there's no garauntee that the change will happen, but someone else asked for a change so I'll give it a shot and give everyone else the opportunity too.

Oh I know it wasn't your fault, not really suprising at all. At least one got in and I get my free copy...hooray.

I'm taking that to mean contributors. I know I'll be sending in my name. I see no reason not to include you too. (And if they do, I'll buy you one)

Oh, you don't have to do that! I appreciate the thought, though.
I shall assume "contributors" myself and send in my address.

Centipede, if you would like a fresh pair of eyes to look over the script, I'm happy to offer my services. I'm not an editor, but have crit - read some fiction work before it was published. I understand if you say no, my not having been around to be involved in the creative process, but just offering my services if it might help.
(also teach english if that's any advantage...) heh.

Thanks for the offer, but the proof is more to make sure the formating is correct. Since I did the original formatting (and just found an error) I'm guessing I should do this too.

OK got ya! That makes much more sense, if it's the formatting. Good luck, and congrats to all you folks who wrote. I shall be buying a copy
