* No profanity, vulgarity, pornography or links to same. None. Zero. Zip. This is
A.A. Milne we're talking about here...even
his adult work (however serious) avoided
virtually all such degradation.
* About fan fiction, original poetry and song lyrics: Parody is acceptable, but barbarism
isn't. (What's the difference? As Louis Armstrong once said about jazz, if you have to ask, you'll never understand...)
* I am really, really
picky about spelling, punctuation and
such. A.A. Milne knew How To Break The Rules Where It Counted. Unless You Do Too, do what your English teacher
always tried to get you to do on your essays and tests. @;-)
(And By The Way, if you catch me on Some Obvious Point of
Spelling, please let me know...leaving aside the fact that I
write in American English rather than British English, of
course.)
* I absolutely love
good written text, good layout, good graphics and good music -- especially when you make putting it all together
look as if it were the easiest thing in the world for you to do. Getting around and finding all that with ease
on your site is important, too.
* Please
sign my Bravenet
guestbook. I'd like to know that you were here.
* Above all, I'm looking for original treatment of the subject -- something that makes your relationship with Pooh and his friends personal
and special, something that shows you Understand What The World of Pooh Is About.
If you have a banner you'd like to exchange with me (once you win the Award, of course),
I'll be happy to put it here on this page. (Eventually, I will come up with a separate list of awarded sites, here
or on the Web Links page.)
