To leave as of general interest, or delete as advertising?

Sorry, I guess I should have left off about the Adventure Bookstore.
Look, we enjoy publishing titles in high-adventure themes and other genres. I only posted up a call for submissions here because I thought someone on this forum may have a book inside of them that would make Ray proud. Who knows?
Right now, we are completely revamping the AB site and changed the domain to discountebooks, with Adventure Books as our paperback imprint.
We're just nice folks out of Seattle trying to help talented new writers into print, especially ones in the sci-fi genre. That's it.

I would let it stand, because Robert is a regular and respectable member of the board (not somebody who has come here just to spam us).

Phil,

I agree wholeheartedly. Robert has brought us the fantastic photos of Mars and other neat shots. Robert's mention of his venture is not so much promoting himself and his business, but, like he says, giving unsung writers an opportunity.

He is a regular and responsible contributer. We need more like Robert.

Because of his recent history with the board, I would probably let it stand, but I really don't like the precedent of this becoming a place to advertise one's business; so am VERY sympathetic to Dandelion's post. I endorse this one with some reservation.

Yeah, watch it, Bub!



(Braling II for president!Braling IIfor president!Braling II for president!...)

My thought exactly. Since it's to do with books, am inclined to let it stand, with a caveat in case anyone else comes along with advertising and an attitude.

Anyway...everyone was right. This is Ray's place.

I remember when I was in the fourth grade in this little Catholic school in southern Oregon, and I read 'Fahrenheit 451.' I used some excuse to write an 'essay' on the book, as much as a fourth-grader could do, and the next thing I knew, I was being dragged down to the priest and given a good lecture!(LOL)
I started writing sci-fi soon after and kept the notebooks hidden under my bed at home.
