=An Invitation= | |||
We are pleased to bring you, in this issue, the first "Political Perspective11 column written by someone other than your editor. | |||
We hope this will be the first of many articles contributed by readers, and thus urge any of you who have something to say that is of interest to politically-oriented libertarians to send in articles for consideration. In addition, we hope more of you will take the time to offer. comments on items which do appear in [[LP News]]; at this time, there are only about fifteen people who offer comments on the contents of [[LP News]], and, while we have more than enough mail to handle on other subjects, we would like more "reader feedback" on [[LP News]]. We must caution you, however, that we can not always answer letters personally. | |||
Criteria which will be used in selecting items to be published are the following: | |||
# Relevance. Items must be specifically oriented to political topics; if they· deal with other subjects (e.g. economic trends), they should deal with the relation between those subjects and libertarian political action. | |||
# Length. The shorter the better; ideally, submissions should be no more than 500 words long. Absolute maximum: 1,000 words. | |||
# Quality. Items should be written clearly and concisely, presenting points cogently and in an easily-understandable form. | |||
Items submitted for inclusion in "Bits & Pieces" may deal with a wider range of topics, but should be informative and brief (100 words). | |||
Letters will not usually be considered for publication {we just don't have the space), unless they are of unusual importance. Data received in letter form may be incorporated in "Bits & Pieces" however. | |||
That's it. Let's hear from you. | |||
