Hear ye! Hear ye!

The following is a public service announcement from Ditalini Press:

In an effort to avoid any confusion and give everyone a fair opportunity, we would like to devise a new system for who chooses the main monthly topics. In order to give everyone a turn choosing a topic, we are going to create a new gadget for the side of the blog page with a list of who will be choosing a topic for what month.

We also realize that not all of you may want to choose a topic; and that is okay, too. So, those of you who would like to decide the monthly topic, please add a comment to this post stating so. We will then take everyone who said "yes" and randomly assign them a month, and post it on the new gadget on main page.

We would like to have the monthly topics chosen and posted by the fifth of every month to give everyone ample time to create their piece. We also thought the due date for everyone to post his or her monthly assignments will be end of the month.

Also, the mini-topics are great, so anyone should feel free to post a mini-topic as they see fit. It is not our intent to bog everything down with rules, just to create a little order as to who gets to choose the topics. If anyone has anything else to suggest, or if you think this is ridiculous, just let us know.

One more thing, please add your comment as to whether or not you want to be part of the topic rotation by February 1st.
