I will start working on your web pages for the Symposium presentations when I receive your abstracts. Take a look at this web page to see an example of how the Symposium web pages look…
SignWriting Symposium 2014
Presentation by Claudia Bianchini
As you can see, if you click on “Authors” on the above web page, it takes you to the biographies and photos of the presenters.
So, if you are a first-time presenter at the Symposium, I will need your biography and photos, as well as your Abstracts. If you presented in 2014, then I already have your bio and photos, unless you wish to update them, and if so, no problem - Just send me the updated files.
Also, if you wish to have a bi-lingual posting of your abstract and bio in your native language and also in English, you are welcome to send me the files in one language, or both, or I can arrange for the English translation…it is all good...
This is so much fun to be in touch with so many talented people -
Look forward to hearing from you -
Val ;-)
