    • If you are unable to save your document in the aforementioned formats, you may alternatively bring enough copies to the next meeting for distribution and have it workshopped the following session in January, 2009.  For a head count, please leave a comment with a current, valid email address.
• Email the manuscript to Kathie Leung (if you do not have this information, you are not considered a member in good standing and therefore are not eligible to submit a manuscript.)  You are, however, welcome to attend our session as a guest and decide on whether you would like to become a member in good standing.
• For faster processing, please include "CWG Your Name MS Date of Workshop in the subject line.  (Example: CWG Kathie Leung MS 12.27.08)
  • If there is anything in particular you would like to pass along to the readers, please include that into the body of the email. 
• Once you have emailed your manuscript, please check your email to ensure it has been received and there weren't any problems opening the document.  If you fail to respond to a notice there was a problem, your piece may be moved down in the order it was received and could potentially be set aside for a later workshop date.  It is your responsibility to check on the document's status.
