August 25th, 2008
We have just realized that due to start-up technical problems, stories submitted between July 8th and August 24th, 2008 have been lost. We deeply regret losing these stories as they are very important to the Project and we appreciate the time and effort people put into their submissions. They were not saved or sent to any email address. The problem has been corrected and will not recur.
If your story was numbered between 2 and 16, we would be very grateful if you could send it again. Please let us know it is a resubmission. Again, we apologize for the technical problems and would very much like to have your contribution.
To the author of story #1: Thank you for being the first! I hope it was valuable to you to share your story and we appreciate your early support of the Project.
To the authors of stories submitted August 25 to September 7th: Thank you for your powerful and moving stories. We respect the difficult journeys you have made and are very grateful to you for sharing your experiences.
To the authors of all stories: We regret that our research protocol does not allow us to post a comment for each story we receive. Please understand that we read every story carefully. We are deeply appreciative of your involvement in the Project. Our sincere thanks for submitting your story.
