Call for CUCC journal articles 2012

Cambridge University Caving Club will publish a journal in this new year, compiling many kinds of caving material surrounding the club from 2000 to 2012. Either if you are a current member, ExCs, expoer or friend, you're welcome to publish your piece: short or long written tales, pictures, drawings... anything that has made CUCC in recent years.

You can either:

a) point a url address where the piece to publish is located (such as a blog, somewhere in expo.survex.net...)
b) send your piece(s) to the following email address: caving-journal at srcf.net


DEADLINE for submitting your piece is 10th of February 2012 at noon. 
If you think you really need further time, let caving-journal at srcf.net know.


FURTHER DETAILS about pieces for the journal are below.


The journal will be printed in book or booklet format if there are enough articles. An excerpt of how the journal would look like is here: http://caving.soc.srcf.net/CUCC2012_samplearticle.pdf. For inspiration, this article from 'the other place' is quite good (thanks Becka for pointing it!)
