I totally understand Barrett, and thank you for being up front about it.  I worried myself, because the job is a huge time and energy commitment.  I wouldn't want you to feel cheated.

We can't pay a lot for pieces, but if you think you could discipline the HB Gary stuff into a coherent series (and I mean that not as a critique of anyone's work to date, just the challenge of the project) I'd be interested in finding a way to have you do it for FDL.  We certainly could get a big audience for it, and would push it hard with press releases etc.

I've always wanted to do a dedicated HB Gary page with Muckey relationships, bios, etc. We started one but the task just got overwhelming, and I figured we needed some perspective before we could make decisions about what was important and what was superfluous:

If that's something you'd be interested in, let's talk about it.

Hi, Jane-

Having thought about it some more, I don't think an editorial role would be right for me, especially since I'm committed to the book and film projects already, but I appreciate being considered for it. If you'd ever be interested in having me write for the site, though, do let me know.

Here's the info on Romas/COIN if any of your writers might have an interest in pursuing some aspect of this. http://wiki.echelon2.org/wiki/Romas/COIN
