SEEKING INPUT

MAP PUZZLERS: Andy at AniMap is looking for a few folks to send him their “hard to find locations based on historical mapping” to test and show how the AniMap program can find them. Email your location details and after verifying details with you, he will “provide a print map of the solution with event dates and related laws to support the findings.” He’s even offering to set up a Zoom session to work to solve the problem as well. You get this assistance for free, in return for allowing your puzzle to be included as a video presentation on AniMap’s website and Rumble channel.  For more information, or to submit your mapping puzzler, email  andy@animap.us 

NEW YORK STORIES: NYG&B is seeking stories of life in New York for their upcoming Conference’s special night of “New York Stories.  The details can be found on our Calls for Papers page. (See the section on Calls for PAPERS  – not presentations)  https://conferencekeeper.org/call-for-papers
