I would like to second Bill's solicitation for articles. When we first started the Article of the Month, contributions were hard to come by. (They still are, somewhat) David Grilli gave us many articles but, as you know, he writes some very good but technical stuff. His article this month on Dryland Training is very short and simple and would be excellent for Newbies and Fitness swimmers. Check it out in the Fitness section.
We would love to hear from all of you. If you do not write articles, find one from your LMSC newsletter, pool, or coach and get permission for us to use it. Send it to Billl or Jani. We work hard trying to find information for our website section but this Forum has helped us reach beyond the committee. Help us post what you have been talking about. Hoping to hear from all of you with an Article of the Month, Pam Himstreet

Hi Bill,
I'll try to round something up...
I always have a ton of ideas (not all of them good).
And have some stories, but, I tend to tell them 'from the hip' and english is not my first language, so whatever I come up with needs heavy duty editing befre it can be an article. Even though I'm constantly working on it, my english vocablulary sometimes leaves me frustrated and at loss for how to say exactly what I mean. I used to be really good at that in my native language.
I also know a few people that are much better at it, and I think with little bit of encouraging and nudging, they'd come up with some interesting stories.
Oh, by the way, some time ago I read your article about parallels between swimming and art (I forget exactly which one it was - off the top of my head). I tend to think in a similar way, and I was delighted to see you talk about that, and I could certainly relate to what you were saying.
