A Thousand WordZ

Hello Community!

Do you have photography, paintings, words, song, poetry, and music…talent to share?

I am Atiim Chenzira, organizer of A Thousand WordZ

A Thousand WordZ is an Ezine and a Community that is rapidly growing. We're started as a Benefit Organization and Music Collaborative and will eventually become an Ezine when our community grows stronger. We use a medium which allows artists to share their gifts and talents, arts and creativity, technical know-how and editorial knowledge with each other. We’re inviting you to join our communtiy and to submit your works for our future publication. We focus on Audio and Visual arts, which could be anything you do; short stories, essays, journalism, poetry, photography, paintings, drawings, song- lyrics, rap/hip-hop, rock, reggae, punk, spoken word, whatever… We are moving in a group and erecting something that is useful to us all.

This is how it works: You read the theme of the upcoming issue. You send us your works. We configure the Ezine accordingly. We set up events to display our works. For your contributions to the Ezine we provide a link from our Network Section (Voltronnection) to either your webpage or email address. The Network Section will be open to the public and we will give snippets of recordings and a tour of our site. For more information please contact us at AThousandWordZ@hotmail.com or use the links above.

The First Issue:
UPRIZING
Subtitle:
SEED

If you have any works that fall under any of the titles above, please send them. Pass this on to your frendz:

A THOUSAND WORDZ

This is an organization that welcomes community support to help raise funds for community needs.

Today A Thousand WordZ stands as a shell of what it could be. The idea is great. We've raised funds this year for Hurricane relief and through our music collaborative (C.U.S.P.) Community Urban Soul Project, we've raised funds for Breast Cancer last November. Our November 10th, 2005 show at the Oakland Metro sparked a realization among the artists that witnessed and participated that community is greater than working alone. Sharing is beautiful and helps take some burden away from isolated attempts to achieve a goal. So, since musicians are clearly into making music this thread of commonality and the will to share our gifts to make a positive change in our immediate communities glues us to this idea of humanity. Humanity can only exist when sharing is involved. So won't you share with us? Share in this idea of community and help us help us all.

Take a look around the sidebars and see which blog you'd like to display your talent. Are you a photographer or visual artist? Are you a musician looking to join a solid community? Are you a comic strip writer? Are you a citizen looking to change the status quo, the way things exist? Are you a poet, a creative writer, an activist writer...etc? Do you want to share in a growing community of poeple who want to share of themselves to be a community? Welcome.
