Share Your Glimpses of Reality
Many of you have sent us your photographs and artwork for use in Present Time and our other journals. The effect of your work has been wonderful for all readers, and we greatly appreciate your assistance in providing clearer and clearer views of reality.
We publish Present Time quarterly and also publish many other journals, a bit more often than we have in years past. Because of this, we could use more photos and artwork from you, our readers.
You don’t need to be someone who thinks of herself or himself as an artist or photographer. Many people who do lovely, thoughtful work still have undischarged distresses that leave them feeling unsure and confused about themselves in this area. Please don’t let any such feelings stop you from sending us what you have done. (Or have some sessions on those feelings, send us your work, and then have more sessions.)
The photos can be of nature, cosmic to microscopic; of objects, familiar or not. They can be about human endeavors, light-hearted or serious. But they need to be your photos that help you remember the real world. Drawings can be simple or more involved, and we would like them to communicate your enjoyment of the world. For Present Time covers, photos need to be in a vertical (portrait) for- mat. For all photos, please indicate what is in the picture, where it was taken, and when.
You can send digital photos and drawings to <photos@rc.org> (e-mail us for details) or mail hard copies to Rational Island Publishers (see address below). We won’t be able to return hard copies. If you’re sending photos by e-mail, please send them at a resolution of 300 dpi or greater.
Important: We need your written permission to use your photos and drawings. (If you’ve already sent us photos or drawings but not permission, we still need your permission.) You can find a permission form on the RC website at http://www.rc.org. If you don’t have access to a computer, call or write Rational Island Publishers requesting a permission form. Our address is 719 2nd Avenue North, Seattle, Washington 98109, USA. Our e-mail address is <photos@rc.org>. Our phone number is +1-206-284-0311.
Please do send us your photographs and artwork. We would love to let other people see them.
