Did anyone send Mr. Lennertz an essay and if so, did you ever hear back

at Harper is
working on essay collections for each of the regional booksellers
associations,
and says that he needs some essays from and/or about Oregon, written by
past or
present booksellers or librarians. He wonders if PNBA can help.
Attached below
is a mock-up of the potential cover for the PNW version, in case seeing
it will
help you imagine the project.<font color="navy"><span

for essays
by booksellers, librarians, sales reps, or even publishers, if they
know the
state and have a good story/subject/presentation. He does NOT want
stories
ABOUT the bookstore or the library, per se, but</span></font><b><span

style="font-family: "Lucida Grande"; font-weight: bold;">stories BY
booksellers or librarians</span></font></b><font face="Lucida Grande"><span
style="font-family: "Lucida Grande";">. He is avoiding
authors at this point, because they tend to have an audience. The
finished
collection will be published by Delphinium, an imprint of Harper, and
will be
promoted and sold in the indie market.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<p style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><b><font face="Times New Roman"
size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;">As you?ll
see in our model for this
project, Ecco?s State by State, some authors once lived in the state
they wrote
about, or do now, but some were sent to the state for a first, fresh
look.
I don?t think you have time for the latter, but really, anything goes.
Likewise, I?m open to pieces about parts of larger states.</span></font></b><o:p></o:p></p>

are NOT about bookstore
