The Reader's Corner is open for any theme, really. It just started so we put in 2nd and 3rd place winners of the the writer's contest, which happened to be a Halloween theme and fit in nicely with the month's events. I feel a little funny about soliciting people to be in the Reader's Corner because we can't pay them anything but entry into the RIM website. However, if anyone has any ideas for encouraging the writers here and on The RIM, I'm sure GonWaki will be happy to entertain them, as would I. Unfortunately this week we've been plagued with Internet connection problems and email blips so this hasn't been our best week for getting back to people, but it would be fun to get some of those wallflowers to come out aad let their words dance. :) By the way, the "theme" in November is going to continue the theme of Chivalry that we started in the contests. Later in December, we are going to celebrate a spaced out holiday season on the RIM. :) dialyn Senior Editor The RIM Website
