Body Count: “Body Image/Imagery” Is The Topic For The Ninth Virtual Symposium
Body Count: “Body Image/Imagery” Is The Topic For The Ninth Virtual Symposium There were three solid contenders… for second place. But “Body Image/Imagery” was the clear top choice as the topic for the upcoming virtual symposium. To those who pimped this vote, thank you! For those new to the virtual symposium: In short, it’s a simultaneous act of blogging. Here’s how it works: Anybody with a blog on this site is welcome to join in. All choosing to participate will create something – an essay, a cartoon, an erotic story, a memoir, a series of one-line aphorisms, an image collage, a photo montage, a poem, or anything else – relating to “Body Image/Imagery.” At a pre-arranged time and date (see below) all participants post their contributions. Want a better sense of how it works – or just some good reads? Here’s a link to the participants’ list from the eighth symposium: Participants List For The Eighth Virtual Symposium Food Feel free to take the basic idea of “Body Image/Imagery” and stretch it to as wild an interpretation as you like -- the post should reflect you! The last thing we need is a dozen monotonous texts on the same topic. Anything goes, as long as there is a trace of the original idea in the post. On the morning of June 28 (this Sunday, for those keeping score), all participants will post their creations. Please, please, post ‘em to your own blogs early: I do want to link to them in a central post here, but I don’t want to be stapled to my desk all day. I'll be responsible for posting links to your blogs here – I want to make this as effortless for participants as possible! Once you’ve posted, leave a note in the comments section here so I know to link to your submission. I will, of course, post latecomers… people do check back to see whether new participants have joined the symposium. But after the morning of June 28, I may not be updating the list as obsessively. Additionally, links sometimes take a while to become live. The sooner I can scoop up the link to your contribution, the faster (hopefully) others will be able to click through to it. As for contributions themselves: The idea is to create something new, as opposed to using posts to respond to other posts (although the comments section will, of course, remain fair game). Leave a note in the blog comments, and I’ll use a post on this blog that day to link to all contributions. A suggestion: Participants may want to refer to either the virtual symposium or the topic itself in their headline. Not a requirement – there are no requirements, save for originality and participation – but a suggestion which will let the wide blog community know what we’re doing. This is not a contest. No souvenir mugs will be sent, nor ribbons awarded. The idea here is for those interested to, on a single day, offer an interpretation of a single topic for the sheer fun of it. By all means, encourage other bloggers to participate – and to let me know they’re doing so through this post, so on the morning of June 28 I can link to their posts. Oh, and please consider this an invitation – if not a request – to the symposium both on your own blogs, and in individual requests to bloggers whom you’d like to see represented. The more the merrier, right? There are some folks with very distinct voices on this site who aren’t yet participating – let’s bring ‘em in and make ‘em one of us, one of us, one of us! Remember, of course, to keep things in your voice! Final note: Every symposium, there are a few newbies who contribute posts, and don’t let me know about their contributions (I catch some by watching the “recent posts” feed, but that’s hit or miss). So… once you post, please leave me a note on the master list post, or here! (I get messages about the symposium which are attached to the blog a little faster than the ones which are emailed to me.) Can’t wait to see the results! the symposium, the symposium, the symposium... the viewers you bring in may be your own. Can't get more (verbally) naked than that...

YOU appreciate the effort? Collecting the various posts is the easy part (when the site cooperates)... it's you guys, who have to wrestle with the topic every month (often one that you haven't voted for) who have the tough part! I am grateful to everyone who participates... And on a personal level, thank you for being a contributor again!
