HIWI: Ike - The Book
Last week, the Houston It's Worth It crew announced that they're accepting submissions for a new book -- this one focusing on Hurricane Ike:
Obviously this subject is still an open wound for many of our neighbors and we don’t want to be insensitive to those who still have a long road of recovery ahead. Rather, we want to highlight the camaraderie and support brought about in the storm’s aftermath – refrigerator cookouts/recipes, extension cord jungles, and neighborhood cleanups. Tell us your stories or poems, dig up a “day ten without power” journal entry, find that song you penned by candlelight and of course, send us your photographs (even those taken on your iPhone or BlackBerry); if you made a hurricane song playlist, go ahead and send that too.
Basically, we want to present a more personal account of Hurricane Ike – from the perspective of those who lived through it, not just from The Galveston Daily News or Houston Chronicle. Thanks again for making HIWI a success, you are indeed the city’s greatest ambassadors.
The deadline for submissions is Friday, February 13. Submission information can be found on the HIWI website.
