    Thanks so much. I'm trying to make it as broad-based as possible and seeking voices as I've said, from the home to the workplace as well as from the past and the present. So please go to it!

    Hi - I wonder if you would consider a late entry.

    The ad on Australian Poetry (http://www.australianpoetry.org/blog/2011/10/01/womens-work-seeks-contributors/) made it appear (to me, anyway) that contributions were accepted *from* 1 Oct, not until. So that was what I put in my calendar!

    Cheers,

    Belinda Rule
