I had wondered what had happened to The Lace Guild's letters page, and
when I asked, I had the response that there hadn't been any letters sent
in, and those that were had been passed on to the relevant people for
response!
Emails tend to be answered straight away, or forwarded to the relevant
"experts" to answer, so it might be an idea if you do chose this method
of communication to make it clear that your intention is for it to be
published in the magazine concerned. Even the 'silly' questions have
their place - not everyone knows the answers and beginners are sometimes
afraid to ask (and experienced lacemakers too embarrassed!)
Where book reviews are concerned, do check the magazine's policy. The
Lace Guild have a team of reviewers for Lace, and the books reviewed are
those which have been acquired for the library, so members know they can
borrow them if they don't wish/can't afford to purchase.
Most of the guild libraries welcome copies of new books - budgets for
purchase are limited, and it isn't always easy to know when a self
published book is available, especially those published in far flung
places :-)

Even a letter to the Editor with a pat on the back, or a grizzle about
something would be OK!!!!!! Most Editors these days accept emails, so there
is No Excuse!!!!! :)
