DEAD STORIES PROJECT
A Request For Submissions

From Bill Keenom

If the prospect of telling Grateful Dead stories makes you yawn,
cringe, or worse, yak, then read no further. If you are still among the faithful,
or once were, please read on.

I'm looking for people willing write two or three pages describing
their most memorable Grateful Dead concert experience.
These stories may include descriptions of the venue, the people,
the drugs, the music, the electricity of a great show, or even the
awful disappointment of a lousy show. How you happened to be
at the show, or the way the event may have impacted your life are
also potential material for your story.

Being a great or seasoned writer is not the point here. Having you put
your honest, heartfelt memories in writing is what I am after. My intention
is to collect the most interesting stories and edit them into a collection
with the hope of publishing them in book form.

If this project is of interest to you, and you have a story to tell,
please send your recollections as text in the body of an e-mail to
bkeenom@pacifier.com. Please do not send these as a document
attachment to an email.

If selected for publication you will be credited with your name and a
bit of personal background text, which will be presented as an opening to each
story.

Feel free to mention this project to your friends, especially if they
have an interesting Dead story. Direct any questions you may have about this
project to me directly at bkeenom@pacifier.com.

Sincerely, Bill Keenom
