People to Share the Dream with...
This is my dream! I always dreamed of making the English magazine when I was in high school and even at university. Things always kept me busy all the time just like my name (Netting) - messy Netting.
Now I am almost 25 years (in this raining June) and l think it is a good time to turn my dream
into reality. I have worked for a year, so many things I've learned and seen in this wonderful world that I'm on.
Last month, I had been working on magazine outlines, emailing to friends, teachers and the volunteer that I've known who I hoped that they might be interested in this magazine matters.
And I also made telephone calls to many friends and teachers asking for ideas about the possibility of making this happen.
Below are the feedbacks that I got from people who are sharing the dream with me and the club.
Gai and Pap: They are wannabe-cartoonists, they will be responsible for the English Crazy Cartoon part.
Bob: He is interesed in 'village life' part since he is from a rural farming family in Surin province.
He is happy to share his childhood story about life in paddy field. Bob also has been writing a novel in Thai, so he is sort of a wannabe writer and reporter for us.
Geng: He is interesed in Buddhist meditation, trying to find the meaning of life - why were we born? Last summer he had participated in meditation session at one of famous forest monastery in Khon Khaen. He will be willing to responsible for 'Conversation with Monks'.
Michael Bush: Friend and ECC volunteer
'Hey Netting, Do you need help? If you have something in mind for me, let me know, and also how much time you think you'd need from me. I'd love to help, but time is short these days!'
Tou: friend from Social Development
'Hi my sister, Thank for invite me jion in English Crazy Magazine. I have many information about "Local Wisdom" issues but no able to write it in English, I must practice it for along time because my E word didn't enough to write it. I think if I finished Mekong School program i may be may write it with your Magazine. I think we have a co-work toger further. Best wishes,Tu'

Meaw: from Costa Rica
Hi, My name is Meaw , I am from Nonkhai. I lived in Germany in 2002 and also
I took that chance to visit a few countries around I am currently living in Costa Rica,
trying to set up www.uvolunteer.org with my partner.I've got your post from a friend of mine. I always have interest in writing as much as I like travelling around the world.
I have always kept my journal. I always think to myself that there are a lot of things and places on this small earth that lots of Thais wouldn't have chance to see, and I really want to share that with them, especially once I know that it is for younger Thai students who have interest to learn English. I will be very much appreciated if you can provide me with more specific detail about the journalist part. Thank you and looking forward to hear from you
John@KSR: the editor and webmaster from Khaosanroad.com
'I will add this to my site for you... '
Rob: the co-founder and project manager of Thai-dragonfly.com
'Hi Netting, Your continuos success in everything you do continues to amaze me, I think that this magizine is a fantastic idea. I will forward this mail on to people who I think may be able to contribute. One of my friends in particular lived in Thailand for four years and now studies creative writing at Bath University in England so I have a feeling that he might be interested in writing the one about "missing Thailand".
Also, I have a friend who is in Thailand right now and is going to be visiting Ubon very soon. I was already planning to ask you if you'd be able to welcome him to Ubon and show him around, introduce him to Eli, Aiden etc etc. He may be interested to help you with the paper too, I have no idea but I know that he's a young, clever guy who doesn't drink and enjoy life. Please lemme know, Thanks and hope to see u soon, Rob'
Charlie: a friend of Rob, who is now a writer for a magazine in Vietnam.
'Hi netting, my name is Charlie, I am a friend of Rob Donnellan. I understand you are looking for writers. I life in Saigon and I write for a magazine here, if you want an article I wrote on my first impressions of Ho Chi Minh city let me know. Also if you want articles on particular stories in Vietnam or places get in touch. Could also send me details of your magazine, I'd like to know what its all about. Yours Charlie'
After this emails, I did answer them back. I will post another feedbacks later on. Thanks for your reading and your time.
