*day 2 of sending this idea out into the world

WOW!
Thank you all for these positive and interesting responses to my first mailings with the blog link.
Obviously no one wants to post their comment right here, but rather respond by e-mail.
That's fine – as long as I do get as many reactions and replies as I do... ;)
But as some of you have asked how to help and how this is going to happen, I'll give you some news about my ideas for next steps right here.

Of course, I've been plotting about how to go forward with this in more detail, but I first wanted to hear and feel into what you all think about the idea in general. And if you'd be willing to join in this project. I'm very happy to say that pretty much everyone who I sent the link to, be it European, UK oder US colleagues, responded positively.

I am still fixing the feasibilities of getting in touch for face-to-face talks and reviewing material.
Several trips will have to be made, as I'd rather speak to the participating individuals in person.
If that is not possible due to circumstances, we can set up a skype date for an interview at you ease and timing, or I'll set up an interview online and you'll send me the image material via internet.

My intital idea for organizing and structuring the content is to to work along each participant’s individual paths, so it’s also going to be a bit like an autobiographic reflection of your professional career paths. How did your individual path start where did it curve, where did it hit some highs (and possibly also lows)...?  So there will be quite a bit of reflection involved which I hope is taken well by all willing to participate.

I believe that these kinds of stories are what triggers interest in each kind of audience – more than just seeing awesome color pictures and titles, which, of course will accompany the individual interviews. But I want this also to be about "life-and-career-story-telling", as each of our lives has been revolving so much around this area of creativity and excitement. So much for today - I'll keep you posted!
Thanks again for responding and again: feel free to comment!!!
