Consonance Pre-Reg

We still have open slots, so contact Seanan McGuire (delirium@xocolatl.com) if you're interested in performing. Remember -- it's first come, first served. If you snooze, you just may lose!
This year, for the first time, the songbook will be released on CD-R, so we can include your song in the format of your choice -- midi, MP3 or sheet music.
To submit a song, please e-mail lyrics and chords, with copyright information, to thiesen@netwizards.net. If the melody is copyrighted by someone else, just tell us what the melody is and you're done. If your melody is original, please submit music in one of the formats mentioned above. You may submit sheet music as a Finale, Harmony Assistant, Noteworthy Composer or PDF file, in which case your sheet music will appear on the CD-R as a PDS file. Your MIDI or MP3 file will appear on the CD-R exactly as you submitted it. If the melody is in the public domain, music is optional.
Because there is almost unlimited room on the CD, you are welcome to submit as many songs as you want, and you are welcome to submit songs that are available elsewhere, such as in another filk songbook or on a website. We welcome your songs whether or not you will be able to attend Consonance. If you will be unable to attend, let us know your mailing address and we will send you your contributor's copy.
Contributors retain all rights to their songs.
Please submit songs as soon as possible, but no later than January 1. Help make the Consonance 2008 songbook a great success by sending us your songs!
