You know I like the suggestion. I think it was Warren's. I am content to have them, but the only work I will do is to stylise them to fit the site layout. That's fair. After all, that's what I do with the stories anyway.

A MS Word document by email is ideal. A txt file means work for me. So, if you are a hosted author and would like your biog published, send it.

There was a suggestion as well for a bibliography. Sure. If only I knew what the proposer had in mind. So, please create an example here and then let's get the authors to construct it.

While we're here, what about a story synopsis, like the back page of a paperback, for each long story? Again over to the authors.

I was wondering about the concept of an individual statement by an author that they acknowledge that I acknowledge their copyright, but frankly the webmaster (me) woudl say that he has permission, wouldn't he (I)? So that has no intrinsic value. I think we will stick to the copyright statement on the home page. Not read it? Go there and scroll to the foot.
