a Kansas City area public radio broadcaster (Barbara) and a college
librarian from BUFFALO, NY, (Linda) “met” in 1996 on PIEN, a worldwide

So far, review of the mss has evoked strong endorsements by many in the
worldwide PD community and an expression of interest in publishing it by one
editorial committee of an independent, commercial publisher with a respected
catalogue However, due to their business department’s need for some form
of guaranteed sales e.g. financial grant or celebrity connection, we are

We are looking for volunteers and interns to rough draft individual
chapters initially using Desktop publshing asap (by 7/1 - ?).. We have ADOBE
IN DESIGN available.
