Caithness.Org Book?

[JamesMcVean]

Do you think we should try and set up a "Best of" or "Annual" Caithness.org...book?

I am into Self Publishing and it would be really easy and pretty cheap...obviously depending on just how many pages it is....

Any thoughts on this idea?? Has anyone got a handle on all the good threads that have been through out the year???

You could have a competition to design the cover or photo from somewhere local...

Cheers

James

‘A book !’ is that what you said ?
The thought just fills me with dread,
I haven’t the skill
Nor the words to fulfill
So I’ll sit here and practise instead.

On the Org with my friends it’s such fun
Rhyming lines and hoping they’ll run
To a rhythm and pace
With style and with grace
But I’m never quite happy when done !!

Im on another forum who do this. Its a fans forum and they actually present the person with the book on a yearly basis, they just (as you suggested) take the best p bits and put them together.

just as well he has a sense of humour, most of it is "photo caption" posts about him!

Dear Trinkie your right
It gave me such a fright
and Nightmares too
It has to be said
A Ditty or Two
A Rhyme for us too
but it is just to
Share with a Few

On e org I do scribble
maybe sometimes just a dribble
some may partake to a notion
or something trigger that emotion

E Boards today do contribute
to the story a referendum
for Scotlands Glory
I think Not we do say
we are part of the UK

I will walk a weary Mile
to remain The British Isle
I may not have a sole on my shoe
to see the back of Salmon too

Trinkie and Annie
You could even do a book of your poems...
Seeing as it is from Caithness it would HAVE to be an E Book...lol

Oh dear Cedric you having a laugh
A good cause we all do have
But to some we having a laugh
poetry I think not that
we do not take ourself to task
but share with all whats in Verse

The experts here we all know
our Trinkie Sporran too
was reading back 2006 Hauki
on the org the other day
what a lot of talent there

Just loved to read the rules
by Kingetter and gleber2

of 5 -7 -5 and sylab whatever

think I was supposed to
Include the weather
or Seasons ach well
whatever

My dear friend I don't mean to take ye to task
But may I be so bold to ask
A poet I'm not,which is a pity
Cos my literature skills will always be a ditty

I'm a dittiest,not a poet
For all on here they should know it
Words and letters is all I show
Does it rhyme,aye sometimes no

A Haiku,is involved with rule
As I once learnt when once at school
But a haiku shouldnae cause ye no stress
When I get ma brain score on the Nintendo DS

I'm not gonnae write a book
If ye all might I'll take a look
I'm Monty Python with a Dead Parrot
I'm Cedric in the Land of the Carrot
