LOUNGETEER E-NEWSLETTER / 19 APRIL 2010
---------------------------------------

Hello, this is the editor again. Most of you received Loungeteer #2 really late, I apologize for that.

I have been on the road and haven't gotten the chance to write another newsletter. I will briefly explain why the next issue will undoubtedly be late: My family and I are between houses, and through an odd circumstance, have traveled to Florida while we straighten things out.

So, one reason is that I do not have a computer with the software I need to work on Loungeteer. The second is that, for several months, the computer I generally use has been non-operational. That should be straightened out shortly after the house thing is straightened out.

I may try to figure out much of the line-up, but that really depends!

To subscribe to the (printed) magazine, head over to http://loungeteer.com/about/one/, download the order form, print and fill it out. Or, if you don't have a printer, reply to this email with your address, and we'll mail you an order form.

Please keep sending contributions for Loungeteer! There's still room in one of the next issues!

We will publish educational, spiritually impacting, or interesting articles; and 'channeled creativity' like stories, poems, jokes, recipes, photography, drawings and so on.

I do also need some people to write two columns (or else I'll have to do it myself!): Homeschooled Past - an article about a particular homeschooled person in history, or a tidbit of homeschooling's history; and Homeschooling Around the World - an article featuring perhaps a homeschooling family and something they do, or the state of homeschooling in a certain area or country.

I Haven't updated in a while, sorry about that. Anyway, through various circumstances, I haven't been able to get Loungeteer #2 printed until recently. Everyone will be receiving their copies soon. :)

The deadline to contribute for #3 is now 31 December. My computer for working on Loungeteer is currently broken, so we'll have to see when #3 is released.

We are publishing educational, spiritually impacting, or interesting articles; and 'channeled creativity' like stories, poems, jokes, recipes, photography, drawings and so on.

Hey kids,

The new website has been up for a few days now! You can go to http://loungeteer.com/ to check it out! It’s much much easier to use now.

So, our great and talented copy-editor (well, actually, just me) has done some checking, and there HAS been a fairly-successful magazine for & by home-scholars. It’s called ‘Kid’s Town’; it’s an online magazine that started in 1997.

It seems to have had several interesting issues, and then for some reason stopped, at Volume 6, with no warning or reasons given. The last update was on 6 March 2003. Eventually, the website went offline, the most recent cached record being 22 October 2006. You can go to http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.hwcn.org/~ab448/kidstown/ and Take a look at the archived pages. So now you know.

As always, you can contribute by going to http://loungeteer.com/write/ and filling out the form. Subscriptions or orders (we have a few of the first issue left) are available at http://loungeteer.com/about/one/

I have a confession to make -

Throughout the production of the first issue of Loungeteer, I really didn't have a set system of dates or deadlines in which to have different parts of the magazine finished, and I had no idea about how much time it takes to complete certain aspects of production.

That's why the first issue was released so much later than planned.

However now I have set up deadlines, and so you should hopefully expect the next issue to be released on time. I won't bore you with the details, but the date that applies to you the most isJuly 31 - the deadline to have contributions submitted to have them in the next issue.

You can make your contributions by going online to http://loungeteer.com/handouts/ and filling out the form. Again, we accept inspiring, spiritually impacting, or educational articles by our demographic - you, and we'll also accept children’s' drawings, photography, illustration, jokes, recipes, and so on. So what are you waiting for? :)

Anyone who hasn't subscribed or ordered can do so now by printing and filling out the form athttp://loungeteer.com/handouts/ :D
