Have you created poetry, artwork, fiction, cartoons, or other
material yourself related to belly dancing that you would like
to share through this web site? I'd love to include it here!
Please send me a note including:
- Information for me to use in creating the attribution that
will accompany your work: your name (as you would like to have
it appear), a comment on whether you would like me to include
your email address online, a photograph of yourself (if you wish)
and any biographical information about yourself (such as how
long you have been interested in belly dancing, how long you've
been an artist, poet, or other creator) that you would like me
to include.
|
- Any background information about the material you're submitting
that you would like to see included on the page with it--what
inspired it, where it has been published before, what it means
to you, etc. For example, see "About This Poem" for
"Eye Over You" by Jack Wells.

Here are the copyright terms I am proposing: If your work
has appeared elsewhere in the past, it is still welcome here
as long as you have retained the rights to offer it. I request
from you the right to present your work on The Art Of Middle
Eastern Dance web site for an ongoing, open-ended period of time.
I will assume that I have the right to keep your material on
my site until such time as you explicitly ask me to remove it.
If my web site should change its URL, I will continue to display
your contribution as long as the fundamental focus of the site
remains Oriental dance--but I will attempt to notify you via
e-mail of such changes so you can evaluate whether they impact
your willingness to continue having your creation appear on my
site. You retain all other rights to your work.
A practical application of these proposed copyright terms:
If I receive inquiries from people who would like to publish
your poem, artwork, fiction, cartoons, or other work in another
medium, or read/display it at an event, or otherwise use it,
of course I will tell them they need to contact you for
such permission. Typically, this means they will be attempting
to contact you via the electronic mail address that you provided
me to include with your biographical information on the page
with your material. So, if your e-mail address changes, please
notify me of either your new e-mail address or an alternate way
to contact you so that other people who would like to showcase
your work have the means to reach you to request permission!
