Project: Grace Notes Feb issue
Patron: Grace Episcopal Church
Medium: Quark Xpress 6.0
Status: Draft 1.0
Deadline: Feb 14th

So this is my charity project. I guess it is kind of rude to say that outright, but I do this newsletter without payment for the church I attend. Sounds like charity to me. I'd be prouder/less guilty about that fact if we had more than one successful issue under our belt. This publication has been tipsy-turvy as long as I've been a member of the church, sometimes while I was a part of its production. (but I was very young then and naive) :/

*sigh*

The fall out of that is right now I'm the person who must do this newsletter. I am the keymaster. :)

On the upside, I've got a wonderful backer who pushes articles out of the collective mind of grace. The collective, ecliptic, slightly wiggy unconscious that is grace. I think that has saved me and this publication. Again, I can not say this enough...

*yay EDITORZ! yay*

At anyrate - this publication is all in black and white mainly to allow for it to be distributed as a pdf off the website and also to reduce the difficulty of getting it printed. We have almost no money for this publication so we try to reduce the cost by printing on the church office copier. We are also taking advantage of a bulk mail permit. All this money we are saving ends up being traded off as time. But I think it is worth the cost to stablize the patient - er, newsletter.

I tried to stay with a font everybody has (Times New Roman) since there have been problems with pdfs and fonts. I'm limiting the clip art/ illustration mainly because I'm limited in the amount of time I can spend creating it, but also to make an effort to change the charcter of the piece. I want to move this newsletter to have more "news" in it about what we are going to do or what we are thinking about. It had been more of a newsletter about "what we did a few months ago" and "I was told I have to write an article." That wasn't anyone's fault, it just showed that we didn't really have anyone in the driver's seat. A lot of things have changed since then.
