------------------World Weavers Website to be Renovated------

After much thought and consideration (about five minutes of it!) the Webmistress has decided to renovate the World Weavers Website. If there's anything you'd like to see on (or off!) the pages, please email her at <shatavari@flashcom.net>

------------------Looking for Staff----------------

*****

Camp Venture is in need of talented, patient individuals to help train and mentor World Weavers' new writers. CV Staff must have a good knowledge of at least one world, good writing skills, and the ability to explain how cooperative fiction works to new writers.

For more information about Camp Venture or to volunteer, please email Mia Sherman <shatavari@flashcom.net>.

*****

The World Weavers Admins are looking for help in the public relations department. That is, there is no public relations department. But there should be. PR staff should have good knowledge of at least one world; be willing to write and place advertisements for WW and component worlds; and be reliable and able to work well with others. To volunteer, please email Mia Sherman <shatavari@flashcom.net>.

-------------------Nominate!----------------

We have a great many excellent writers in World Weavers, as everyone should be aware already. And what better way to tell someone than to nominate them for one of the World Weavers Awards?
