Okay, first of all a great big THANKS to all you who have so far sent in entries. Keep bringing them in! I'll use anything you give me! Just E-mail it to me! For those of you who have yet to contribute something, here's the guide lines...(if you have, scroll down a bit)

1. E-mail me a story, poem, or song, as long as you would like it to be, I don't care if its three hundred pages long, about how Hanson has influenced, inspired, whatever, you. It cannot have swearing of any kind, too much violence or anything related to that basically. You can send me more then one entry if you'd like. Your entry MUST have a title! (well, it would be nice..)

2. In the "subject" box please put "Entry" so I'll know to pay close attention to it when I find it.

3. All I really need about you for know is an E-mail addy. Kay?

4. Hopefully, later I could maybe send a copy of this to those who would like one. I think some people may have misinterpruted this part or however you would spell that. Yes I am making a real book...and no I will not be posting it on the net and cannot really send it to people through E-mail (it would take forever - there's soooo much stuff already!) For more info...scroll down a bit.

5. Guess what? All entries that are recieved will be put into this collection. Every single one. And even the shortest least detailed stories are important.

6.I am looking for a few people out there, willing to E-mail me their picture...ya' see, on the cover of the book there's ofcourse gonna be a few pictures of Hanson, but if any of you could either send me a picture of yourself, a fellow fan, your art, or even a picture YOU took of Hanson, I would like that. It would be put on the cover, and I would mention your name, your friends name...ect. ect. I just think it would be cool.

7. I have know set a deadline for this book. I know it seems to have been going on for a while. Since like May. But I've still been recieving E-mails for this so I'm extending it. (I was originally gonna start putting stuff together in August..) The deadline for sending things in is December 31, 1999. You all have plenty of time!

Sorry to you guys out there who already sent me things...but I need you to read some more crap.

I will not be posting the songs anymore since I've gotten too many to post. And I will not be posting stories either. I've thought a bit, and some of this is people's personal business. I'm not putting my story on the net.

About the actual book...I have gotten quite a few E-mails from people intrested in getting a book. Only some must seem to think I can send it through E-mail...sorry, but it's longer then I expected it to be. BUT if you really really really want a copy, you can send me your address, your home address or P.O. Box or whatever, (I promise you I am not some kind of wacked out crazed ax murder who will come over and kill you in your sleep...) and I'll hopefully be able to send you a copy. You don't have to send me any money at all for a copy. Consider it a big ol' thankyou for sending something in the first place.

As stated above, you have a deadline know, till December 31, 1999 to send me anything else. Speaking of which...

I need a little more help. Like I said above this is a REAL book, not one of those cheepo stacks of paper with hole's punched in it, tied together. And a real book kind of has a cover? Well for this cover, I'll be making kind of a collage thing. So I need some of you to send any pictures of yourself or a friend (who likes Hanson) any of your Hanson art such as sketches, paintings, whatever, or any live pictures you've took of Hanson. I will try to include all pix I recieve (a picture sent through E-mail, not the mail) and if you get one of your pictures on the cover, I will mention it in the book. (Hey, I could probably fit in a few pages of your pix and art work and stuff if you'd like...)

Once the book is out, and I have sent it to you guys, and Hanson, (it will get to them, I know have a TOP SECRET plan *think James Bond* and I also have back up plans. It WILL be seen by them.) I will post all of you guys who sent me stuffs names up here and give ya'll your own little tribute. Ya' know, I won't post addy's or stories but names so you'll feel even more special!

Now...please keep it up! Tell your friends, send me something, do anything! And once again, a big fat THANKYOU to those who have already sent stuff.

Pookio
