Word from the Archaeologists

Switched forum software. Established new red-&-grey color scheme which seems satisfactory.

Yes, we are fully aware of the default ugliness of our NEW FORUMS (find tent above), but
be assured that the problem (essentially the colors) will be fixed very soon. Scouring template files can be tedious. Bear with us and
post at your leisure.
We have momentarily abandoned the Throughstone project and are currently considering which aspects of
that project can be effectively applied to Gone Lawn . . . in other words we are aiming to make the catalog more accessible and
interactive.
One of the things we are considering is a section for downloadable self-published works (in PDF format), which will be
open to all nontraditional fiction writers both unknown and established. If implemented: it will either be added to the EMERGING page
or be given its own tent. Considering the rising popularity of self-publication: we think that this might be a viable addition, not to mention
helpful for those who have chosen this route as a means of getting their work out. If you happen to entertain an opinion: please let us
know about it in the forums, where we've added a topic for discussion.
As always: please contribute any information, journals or authors or presses or interesting projects or other material,
that we might be missing. If you're an emerging writer and you think you belong in our listings: don't be afraid to let us know!
And of course, if you're an editor or writer and are listed here: PLEASE RETURN THE FAVOR AND LINK BACK TO
US! After all: we can help you only to the extent that you help us!

Apologies for the site's neglect, lately, as energies are being spent on our sister project, Throughstone. If you're a coder
experienced in php & MySQL and would like to help out, don't be afraid to send us a note. It's especially helpful if you live in the
Boston area, but what we really need is enthusiasm and free time.

Now that it's official, happy Pi Day, everyone!

We have a new banner. Anybody who runs a website and wishes to include this banner in their links will find it in the
ABOUT section. Thanks in advance.

Adding encouragement to our endeavor, and thanks to directions from author Tim Horvath (check our
EMERGING listings), we've recently been able to disinter yet another fossil from the rich w3 soil. Because of some
rather odd dreams we've been experiencing since then, we've come to suspect that this particular fossil possesses
oneiric powers. Some further investigation seems to confirm our line of thought, owed particularly to the words
method and dreaming (roughly translated) that have been appointed in curiously cooperative
juxtaposition, and strangely highlighted therein. Its apparent connection to artist Andy Campbell is still
being explored.
(Scroll down if necessary.)

Another fossil, which appears to conjure some remote connection with the equally remote Russian poet
Vladimir Mayakovsky, has recently been unearthed. We are currently hard at work trying to demystify its
elements. It can be found some distance below.
