    Hmm. My submission is anonymous. Should I just make something up?
    Do I have to submit something at all?
    reality continues to ruin my life

    That's why you use a pen name, a fake bio, a fake acknowledgement, and a fake picture ala Bachman.

    I think it's about time that we announce our final artist! Doing the artwork for Ryan Wood's "Brother" will be a relatively unknown artist (until now, of course) by the name of Dustin Amato. I've personally met with this artist, flipped through his portfolio, we have discussed his ideas for this poem, and I know for a fact that he is going to knock it out of the park. Welcome, Dustin, to the In Mint Condition team. We're very glad to have you!

    I'm very excited to see what Mr Amato will do with my poem. I can't find any artwork from him on google, so I have no idea what to expect. I trust that your judgment is sound, Shannon, and I'm sure that whatever he comes up with will be great. Thanks a lot.
    Go then, there are other worlds than these.

    Shannon,

    Inquiring minds would like an update if at all possible. I know a few are still anxiuosly awaiting their submissions with editing suggestions! Do you have any target date for actual publication? I know that is hard to answer - just looking for a ballpark date/time period! :-)
    DT Spoiler - Enter at your own risk!

    Spoiler:
    I can’t remember if I cried
    When I read about Eddie’s widowed bride,
    And something touched me deep inside
    The day the bumbler died.”

    Simple. Choose to say nothing. Let the piece speak for itself.
    I would suggest you come up with something-unless you are already famous; this is your one chance to glory; or by not choosing-ignominy.

    My solution was to have someone else write it
    They did a great job, too.

    We will be printing and shipping the books in early 2013. If I were a betting man, my bet would be around March.

    Am I right that the S/L for this is not signed by the contributors?

    Would be interesting to try to get it signed by all who contributed, minus TN of course since she choose to be anonymous.

    There must be some kind of facsimile sig thing going on, though. One of the items Shannon wants contributors to send him is a scan of our signature.
