PIONEER PROJECT CLUBS AND AUTHORS
Here are the clubs we're
hoping to include and the author who has
volunteered to write about each. The clubs in roman type with their own lines are ones we
consider important enough that we want to include them if at all possible. The
ones in italics are ones we'd consider adding if someone expressed interest.
We're also very willing to consider including clubs not listed if someone
is willing to write about them, so don't hesitate to ask about a club you don't
see here. And if you're interested in a club that has already been
assigned, feel free to inquire; the person working on them may be happy to join
forces with you or to exchange information or even to step aside.
Clubs in bold are key ones
that remain available.
