Seeking writers, reviews, and those interesting in being heard....

Greetings and Namaste'

I'm the editor of my own small music/spiritual publication called Along Your Path. I recently discovered this Forum while seeking out info dealing with this years Rainbow Family Gathering in AR.

First, for further info you can check out www.myspace.com/alongyourpath and/or www.alongyourpath.net.

This publication deals with various music genres as well as diffrent aspects of spiritual life. I just got back my first promotional issue from the printers today. A .pdf file of the promo can be found on main website. Please download and tell me what you think.

At the moment I am getting ready to go to Arkansas, there I will be handing out a few 1000 copies of the first promotional issue. After I return I will be starting work on the second promotional copy which will be released in Oct. For that issue I already have most of the content ready.

Where you can come in.......

For the future I am looking for writings on a variety of topics, ranging from submited music/book/video reviews, articles dealing with spirituality ranging from the mundane to the extreme, from Paganism to Hinduism to Christianity to Bahai and everything in between. Also, articles ranging from enviromental and political to ????? I am open to most ideas that cater to the world at large. Music ranges from Ambient Trance to extreme Metalcore and Death Metal, native American to Hindu Kirtans and any music that comes from the heart and deals with meaning and substance.

If you are interested in writing something contact me, submit your writing and your contact info and I will get back with you. For the most part I might not use your writing right away yet will keep it for future referance. Later issues will be themed on certain topics and your stories might come in handy then.

Contact me for more info.

My first two promo issues are free of charge (as well as future issues) and has a circulation of 5000 copies and the 1st will be distributed at this years Rainbow gathering. Other copies will be distributed here and there (If interested in distributing please contact me) The second with be the same count but concentration will be getting them off to record labels, distributrion centers, and businesses.

I would like to pay people for writing yet I am putting this publication together on my own (DIY) and out of my own pocket. Future calls for advertisment as well as bartering ads for ???

For more info reply to this thread and/or contact me through MySpace and/or email.

Thanks and many blessings

These stories have embedded images which enhance them. Hopefully the images can be downloaded easily. If not, get in touch with me.

I have no intention of getting paid for any of this. If a reader is amused or says, "Yes, this rings true, I enjoyed it", that is my payment.
