Hi Mark,
Yes, I remember the Mathhew Hall thing...I also submitted something to
him and never heard back. I ended up using the brief overview of Joni's
recording career I'd written for his fanzine on my own website - so
something good came of it. Some people who saw it on my site then
commented on its lack of depth, but that was the whole point of my
piece...it was supposed to be a condensed overview.
I'd be interested to read your article.
Jason.
