F. A. Q.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I submit an article, news about my room or anything else for the zine?
Easy enough, just email Michigan Storm™ (ch_zine@hotmail.com) with your piece and
tell her what handle you'd like it posted under and what area of the zine it should go in. (ie: the mail bag, poetry corner, question for advice column,
chatroom news, fiction, etc.)
How do I give one of the writers my opinion on something they've written about or something I think they should write about?
Just email that writer and tell them what you're writing about, give such information as what you are writing in reference to or if you'd like them to address the issue in their article.
All email addresses are at the bottom of this page.
How do I become a featured chatter or request that someone else be?
Email any of the writers and include the email address and handle of the chatter to be featured, whether it be you or someone else. All emails are
confidential and email addresses sent to us are not given out. Whoever you write to may forward it to Michigan Storm™ so that she can make sure the
featured chatter form is sent out promptly.
What should I include in any email I send to a writer for the zine?
Mainly we need to know what the email is about and what article it is for or if it is to become an article. Tell us if you want your handle included, otherwise most of
the writers do not include handles in their articles. If you want a reply posted in the zine say so, if you do not wish the email to be in the zine at all you must say so.
What criteria is needed for an article to be included in the zine?
#1. We ask that you do NOT use the zine as a way of attacking other chatters in your article.
#2. Please avoid as much profanity as possible, absolutely no "F word".
#3. Include the handle you'd like it posted in the by-line.
#4. It should be worded as you would like it posted, as it will most likely be copied into Notepad and have codes added.
#5. Please proof-read your article carefully.
#6. If you are asking for input on something through the zine, please include an email for the readers to contact you.
How do I add my homepage to the linkage page?
Email one of the staff members with your handle, the floor you chat on, a brief description of your site and it's title. Please
include in the email that you'd like it added to linkage so that they know why it has been sent.
