And we thought, why not have what she sent us BE the article? So she&#8217;ll be the first one. The idea is a one- or two-page regular feature, written by a reader and laid out\/illustrated like any other article, about an experience or viewpoint unique to that person (i.e., not &#8220;This is how I feel about gun control&#8221; or &#8220;My report on rocket ships&#8221;). I&#8217;m hoping the kids get excited about it and send lots of submissions. But we need to get submissions coming in before it&#8217;s announced in the September issue.<\/p>\n<p><i>[The magazine&#8217;s e-mail address is <b>muse@caruspub.com<\/b>.]<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><i>Editor Elizabeth Preston sent us this announcement:<\/i><\/p>\n<p>MUSE wants YOU!
