NB: The text below remains unchanged from the November 1997 issue. However, since there has been a subsequent actual retroactive revamp, much of what it says is now entirely meaningless, although whether or not any of it had any meaning anyway is a matter left to the reader's discretion.
Those happy (cough) few who have followed Swallow's rather shaky path since February may have noticed that the title 'retroactive revamp' is in fact a lie, since I have not gone back and redone issues #1 to #4 in this spiffy new 'house' style I made up one night when I was tired. Anyone who knows what spiffy means, by the way, should get in touch.
The rather pompous set of contributor's guidelines set out in previous issues still stand up to a point, though it must be borne in mind that all things are mutable and I am eminently capable of losing files that get sent to me.
(Noah, jcn: - I'm *really* sorry. I lost the files in the process of moving and not having a computer for a while. Did I never tell you I was crap? Please send them again.)
The surest way of contributing is to stick something up on another site and ask me if I want to link to it in one of the next issues of Swallow. That way, I can't lose the file, and the answer is probably yes, unless it really is complete rubbish, and even then, well, it's not entirely inappropriate, is it?
You can get to the back issues of Swallow from the front page, which you can get to at any time by clicking on where it says 'Swallow' above. Any other navigation issues you may have are entirely your own problem and I don't want to know about them.
