Hefestus Editions - Announcement

hefestus (62)in #steemitbook • 6 hours ago (edited)

I hope it's not illegal to have two different accounts, but I found no better way of doing this.

As I've been discussing in several comment threads, I have the intention to invite a number of writers that have been publishing in Steemit to take part of an anthology that I am willing and able to produce, edit and publish, with the goal date being set for the 23rd of April 2025, appropriately the International Day of the Book and Copyrights, as determined by UNESCO.

For that endeavour, I have setup separate email and steemit accounts, else, I feel mail will be lost and the management effort will become impossible. The additional Steemit account I have created is @hefestuseditions that, hopefully, will become the meeting point for the discussion and organization effort behind this, and maybe future publications.

At this point I am preparing the rules for the contest I am going to launch. I am also inviting some authors personally, but, as I don't have full knowledge of everybody that publishes in this platform, the contest I am getting ready will fulfill the role of plugging that hole in my knowledge of the entirity of the works and authors published here.

I am also getting the legal framework and paperwork ready for the utilization of your texts and assurance of everybody's rights. As this tends to be a fastidious job, I will still be taking a few days until I have everything ready.

This is it regarding news, for now. Future news regarding this publication will be posted through @hefestuseditions user.

Thanks, @wakeupkitty, @weisser-rabe, @almaguer for the dialogue you've been having with me surrounding this work.

That will be fine to have a separate account for this.

Good luck with the project.

Thanks. All the luck will be welcome. I hear that there are a few very good authors that are no longer on board.
Still, I believe we can find the material for an excellent book.

Estimado:@hefestus
Todo lo bueno en el ser humano viene del alma. Es la poética de los sentimientos, es lo que nos da la humanidad en un mundo deshumanizado. Promover cualquier manifestación del arte es una gran tarea. No solo por la parte técnica, sino por la loable empresa, de rescatar los valores que representa todo lo relacionado con el arte. ¿Qué sería de la humanidad sin el arte? Se conoce más de la civilización por el arte que por cualquier otra ciencia.
Elevad anclas y tomad distancia, que el barco de la literatura siempre es bienvenido en cada nuevo puerto. Hinchad las velas, con la magia del arte. Todo será nuevo, todo es desconocido. Pero poderoso es el maderamen que lo sostiene.
Es grato ver como los amigos comienzan nuevos proyectos.
Tendrás éxito. Piénselo así. Vislumbre los colores dorados de las letras.
Tenga mi apoyo y buena fe en lo que le pueda ayudar.
