The bliss book

This is a most delightful booklet containing a one-page contribution by each camper and staff person who chooses to participate. Many people dedicate their page to the subject of their workshop. The idea is to give each other tools and ideas that are helpful and inspiring. All campers and staff receive the booklets. If you want to participate

• You can snail mail your page (we don’t return it) or email it as an attached PDF (or perhaps jpg, MS word document, or Open Office document--but PDF is usually best).
• Use one side of one page.
• Leave margins or part of it will get cut off.
• Best to type or write in clear handwriting. We don’t retype—we just photocopy your page.
• If you want to illustrate your page, great, but photos don’t necessarily copy well unless they're in a print-ready format.
• Remember to include your name! And, lots of people like to give their page a title.
• Make your page in black and white only, as color doesn’t copy well (the booklets are printed in black and white).
