SLEDDOG LEGACY ONLINE has been publishing for over two months now, and has served around 1200 page-views since its inception. So obviously, some folks are reading it.
The odd part is that none of its readers have submitted a single item to be published on this newsletter! Thus far the editors have had to hustle every single bit of its content. The past two months ought to be enough to prove our bona fides and good intentions. SLEDDOG LEGACY ONLINE is a serious effort to provide a broadly-based newsletter for people interested in historic sleddog breeds and recreational dog driving.
I. S. A. and W. C. A. C. use this newsletter for announcements, but it is far from being intended as an exclusive club affair. Our editorial policy is open to contributions from anyone and is up to publishing dissident opinions. There are no breed restrictions, no membership requirements. So far, though: zilch, zip, nada, Sweet Fanny Ann -- from supporters OR detractors.
If YOU don't want this newsletter, I can think of other uses for the server space, the bandwidth, and my own time. We really do need YOU to contribute some content! If you are worried that your writing skills aren't that polished, we're more than happy to edit or polish for you; if you want it published word for word, NO editing wanted, we can do that, too -- if it's too libellous or inflammatory, we'll just say, "sorry, too hot to handle," and no hard feelings. But if EVERYBODY continues to contribute NOTHING, sooner or later we'll have to ask ourselves whether it's really worthwhile to continue publishing. So why not send us an example or two of the kind of thing you'd like to see published here???
(If you would like to tell us WHY you don't wish to contribute, just use the "Comments" function! It's there for that kind of purpose.)

Thanx
