For those who have ongoing drives for Storm Victims, we'd like to help. We'd like to post stories on trucks still loading, bound for tornado relief, and we hope to have time to include the solicitation as an event. To do so, we'll need the story to include all these details: Who is sponsoring with contact information, Where the donations are being received (with Street & Number), When (times with zone listing and day and complete date) date), What cause, and, Why. It's a lot of information to pack into four lines of text, but tight editing will result in better results - and will be a courtesy to busy donors. -EW 2012-03-12 05:49:42 | Comments | Printable version
