I am happy to work with folks on their LTEs. I have cc¹d Prajna, as they
developed a schedule of topics week to week so that there were many angles,
and each letter was asked to write to that week¹s topic. Could be from a
farmer¹s perpective, someone with a well they are worried about, something
from the paper the week before, etc. Just a thought.
Best, Shannon
