Co-editor - Mark Norman

Sharon Norman is now co-editor of Apotheosis, I am almost embarrassed introducing her because she has been at the forefront all along driving the revamp of Apotheosis and the Poetic Genius Society website. Without her help I never would have been able to keep up with the influx of new members, submissions, changes, and etc. With the installment of Sharon as co-editor I hope to be able to devote more time to the goals I have set forth to for the Poetic Genius Society.

New Egroup - Mark Norman

Hello fellow PGS’ers,

I just want to remind everyone to convert over to the new Poetic Genius Society yahoo group. If you have not received your invitation, please send me an email and I’ll get it out to you. This invitation is the only way to become a member in the society’s new yahoo site. It has the approved links to get you there.

I am updating my master mailing email address list. I know several members are not on it and I’ll be contacting them individually, so look forward to seeing old familiar names in a new venue.

Sharon and I want to issue the sincerest thanks for all the compliments we received on the current issue of Apotheosis, and also congratulate you for the contents that made it a great issue.

PGS Certificates- Mark Norman

Hello fellow members of PGS,

Redesign of the Poetic Genius Society Membership Certificate is complete. I have attached a jpeg image of the certificate. I am taking orders for a January 2nd mail out. I’ll make the cut off for placing an order December 1st so there will be time to mail them to Greg for his signature and for him to return them to me.

The price will remain the same, $5.00 within USA/ $10.00 outside USA, U.S. currency, money order preferred, payable to Mark Norman.

Any money in excess of the cost of producing and mailing the certificates will be applied to our domain name’s yearly registration ($8.95/yr.) and server space rental($8.95/month). If there should be money in excess of these costs, it will go to the yearly poetry contest.

A note on the certificates:

Muhamed Veletanlic brought to my attention the cost of money orders etc. outside U.S. and possible use of Paypal. I am a member of Paypal, so anyone outside of the U.S. (as well as within the U.S.) may use it to purchase a certificate. I am registered under my email, marknorm@adelphia.net  If you use this method of payment, please remember to send your address to me.

PGS Online Store - Mark Norman

Hello fellow Poetic Genius Society members,

I am happy to announce the opening of the PGS Online Store, where apparel, mugs, mouse pads, etc. embossed with the PGS logo may be purchased.

cafepress.com/pgsstore

A link to our shop will appear on our main web page soon. As far as the merchandise, Sharon and I have purchased the bumper sticker, ball cap, hooded shirt and mouse pad. The logos look excellent and the merchandise quality is comparable to the prices. All prices are marked up exactly one dollar (except coasters, which are marked up fifty cents). Any funds received from merchandising will be handled the same as any excess funds from the certificates. Any cash excess will be applied to our domain name’s yearly registration ($8.95/yr.) and server space rental ($8.95/month). If there should be money in excess of these costs, it will go to the yearly poetry contest.
