Hi, I've just added your relation to our "Success stories" on the Scribus Wiki: http://wiki.scribus.net/index.php/Success_stories#96-page_print-ready_anthology_of_texts_from_young_Norwegian_authors Feel free to extend it, polish, add screen shots of your anthology (not too large, please), etc... regards Maciej
