9) MISCELLANEOUS OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
We accept CDs and cassettes of all musical styles for review. Please send one or two copies to the address at http://www.geoffwilbur.com/contact_info.html -- the shortcut listed in Section 7 above.
We're always looking for more writers. Writing positions at GWRN are unpaid, though the perks are great. If you or a writer you know would like to cover your local music scene for Geoff Wilbur's Renegade Newsletter, please direct an inquiry to Geoff Wilbur at geoff@....
Thanks again for reading yet another monthly update. As the months pass, watch for more improvements and additions. Feel free to make suggestions. And hey, go to http://membrane.com/renegade/winter02/printsub.html, print out the form, and sign up to get yourself a subscription to your favorite edition.
And hey, for those of you who are really curious, go ahead and check out the really basic home page I've set up at http://www.geoffwilbur.com. In addition to a few personal items, I've added several GWRN items and may add a few more as time permits, though it will be limited mostly to things that need frequent maintenance, like back issue purchase forms and advertising deadlines... and links to the official GWRN home page, which is, has been, and (as far as I'm concerned) will always be http://membrane.com/renegade. (They're great people over there at membrane.com who gave us early Internet guidance and have helped us out of more than one jam over the years, and we're proud to be part of their online community.)
