Subject: RDT Right Now: Tori Amos Book Proposal - Contributions Needed!

Calling all TORI AMOS fans!
=20
For my Editing class=2C I am putting together a BOOK PROPOSAL.  The Working=
 Title is:
=20
After the RAINN: Finding Our Voices Through Tori Amos
A Contribution to and from Survivors
=20
I'm aiming for a collaboration from fans... My idea is a collection of "Tor=
i Stories"... stories about meeting Tori=2C how Tori has helped you through=
 sexual abuse if you are a survivor (I understand this is a touchy subject=
=2C but I really need someone to say something about it because it ties in =
with the whole RAINN aspect)=2C how Tori's music has affected you emotional=
ly=2C how her music has helped you through depression=2C etc. You can write=
 about your experience meeting Tori and how talking to her affected you. Yo=
u can write about how a specific concert affected you=2C or why a specific =
song is meaningul to you.=20
=20
For this project I am required to include actual EXCERPTS that would appear=
 in the published book.
=20
I am asking that if you have the time=2C to send me your own "Tori Story." =
 If you have one written already=2C that is great=2C or even just write a s=
hort paragraph about how Tori and her music have been therapeutic/healing f=
or you personally. Anything=2C even a sentence=2C will help.=20
=20
I would also like to include an artwork section (Tori-inspired poetry=2C dr=
awings=2C etc.) I also encourage you to send pictures of you and Tori toget=
her=2C it would be nice to include a colour middle section with pictues of =
Tori and her fans.
=20
Sections I want to include:
- Tori Stories=20
- Tori inspired artwork
- Interviews (transcripts of Tori speaking of healing=2C her experience wit=
h rape=2C etc.)
- Interpretations of specific live performances (RAINN benefit concerts=2C =
MAAG with props=2C etc.)... fan interpretations of how certain concerts hav=
e been memorable/personal to you (based on the music) would be awesome.
- Lyrics (MAAG=2C SATY=2C etc.)
=20
My project is due MONDAY morning. I realize this is really short notice=2C =
but I need all the help I can get. I have been overwhelmed with schoolwork =
lately and this weekend is the only chance I have had to work on this proje=
ct.
=20
My professor happens to own a Canadian publishing company. He said that if =
he thinks an idea is really good=2C he is going to seriously consider makin=
g the book happen. Of course=2C this is just the beginning=2C the proposal=
=2C and if it were to happen=2C it would require approval by Tori=2C etc. I=
 really think my idea could be successful though -- I think we can all agre=
e that Tori's music is very personal to us. I've seen some websites in the =
past sharing "Tori Stories" and I'd love to gather as many as possible into=
 some sort of collection=2C sort of a tribute to Tori...
=20
Please post=2C comment=2C e-mail=2C message me=2C anything regarding this b=
y Sunday=2C November 9th (Monday=2C November 10th at 2:00 am EST at the ver=
y latest). My e-mail is vervalicious@hotmail.com Again=2C I am really sorry=
 for the short notice and understand if no one has time=2C but I really am =
hoping someone wants to be a part of this.
