> Unto the populace of Ansteorra come greetings from Michael Silverhands,

> Good my kinsmen, I'm finding myself responding to a number of questions
> regarding announcements to be published in the Black Star. If you have
> submissions for the Black Star - such as an announcement for an upcoming
event -
> please take a moment to read the submission policies. They are published
every
> month in the Black Star. This month (the March issue), they appear on page
14.
> Reading them will save you and me both some time.
>
> I don't mind answering your questions and helping you put together a
quality
> announcement for your event. It may be just one of several that I'm
handling,
> but it's the *only* one that *you* are handling, and I understand how
important
> it is to you. I want your event to be successful just as much as you do.
But,
> please, if you have a question, see if it is already answered in the Black
Star.
> If not, or if you don't understand the policies, feel free to ask. I am
happy to help.
>
> PLEASE NOTE THIS ADDITION TO THE PUBLISHED POLICIES: your event
announcement
> must state whether a site is "wet" or "dry", along with any other special
> considerations of the site. The phrase "discretely wet" is not acceptable.
If
> you mean "the site is wet, but please use period containers", then state
that.
> If you mean "it's a dry site, but if you're sneaky and don't get caught,
we'll
> look the other way", then please reconsider your policy.
>
> Please remember that all event announcements must be approved for
publication by
> your seneschal. I will not publish your announcement without hearing from
them.
> Also, if your announcement contains ANY artwork, even just a map to the
site, I
> must receive a signed release from the artist, giving permission to
publish the
> artwork. If the artwork is in the public domain (such as Dover art) you
still
> need to send me a release telling me where you got it and that it's ok to
> publish. I will accept electronic submissions with paperwork to follow in
the
> mail, but if I have any concerns about the artwork I will not publish it
without
> the release. The safest thing is, get the release to me well in advance of
the deadline.
>
> Finally, if you're new to putting together one of these announcements,
Thank
> you! Thank you for the work you are doing, and helping your group to have
a good
> event. But, please, seek help first from your local officers (especially
your
> chronicler and your seneschal) if you have any questions about how to
proceed.
> There is only one of me, and there are well over a thousand of you. Even
though
> I'm an Ansteorran warrior, and I will hold the field as best I can, I must
admit
> that you've got me outnumbered. :-)
>
> Yours in service,
> Michael
>
> p.s. to branch seneschals: please, if you will, see that your populace
receives
> this announcement. Thanks.
