To potential contributors...
If you're interested in writing something about the koto, but don't have a forum for your work (or want another source of links), please feel free to send your contribution to me for inclusion (with attribution, of course, and a link to any site of your own that you specify).
Since many people have a general interest in all aspects of Japanese music, stretching to Noh and Kabuki, I'm also willing to host any contributions you want to make on vaguely related topics. Maybe you don't have your own webspace; maybe you don't have the time or the inclination to write your own web pages; maybe you think it's better to put your information up on the same site as related information, a site which has - or used to have - some prominence with the search engines. I've already paid for my webspace and will probably never write enough to fill up my 30MB on my own, so, whatever your reason, feel free to make use of this space. But please understand that, if I'm particularly busy, it may take a while; also that I may edit your text for grammar and spelling mistakes; and that I reserve the right not to put up your contribution if I feel that it doesn't belong on the site for some reason.
