[There being three activities so far, should add some spice for the day. I wish everyone well in each one. Maybe we can get a few more and make it a full day. I hope I have the chance to participate some time in the others. Keep in mind that those are specialty actitivies. Though I will be dedicated to the book fair and promoting it for regularity for interested characters. I recommend that if you get the chance, make the time to paticipate a little in each activity. It is a great oppurtunity to see for yoursevles how others set-up and execute a player organized activity. You may get an idea or two from them to help you create one of your own.]
[ As Miadon mentioned. The book fair time may not be the best time for everyone. These are usually prime time hours to catch at least half the time zones. But, I am open to sugestions for future openings. I hope in the near future to make some time to jump in during other time zones during a weekend. So if there is a better time for you, please PM me here. I will look for an average time period from that information and try to work something out with it. If I have to the time, or if anyone is interested in adding another time and is willing to organize it on the same day do let me know. I wll do what I can to help you set it up. There is absolutly no reason this actibity cannot be catered to include other time zones. That will take interested people willing to step-up and lend a hand.]
[ The Book fair is not a new idea, But is in it's infancy. The title of the actitvity is general to give it's basic purpose. Simpicity first! Having explained that, I would be interested in a name for it with some zeal, zip, pizaz, grand, invigorating, sings, and/or even sparkles with more appeal. One, that sets an interest with a middle ages setting. So dig deeply in your bag of thoughts, and give me what you got.]
