Please participate!

This site is intended to be a workshop for families of all different walks of life. We are looking for contributions from parents, kids, grandparents, maybe even the family dog. Contributions are aimed towards story building and can be found through many means. The website will sponsor competitions with various themes to inspire collaboration (and hopefully creativity). All submissions can be made by email to shoeboxofdreamsentries@gmail.com and (as long as the material is family appropriate) it will be posted corresponding to the contest entered. From there the website is up to you; suggestions can be made to the same email if you have an idea you'd love to see. We hope this website inspires creativity and pulling your shoebox of dreams off the shelf, finding and collaborating with friends doing the same thing, and making some great stories to watch together as a family or read at bedtime. This website needs your input to suceed (otherwise it'd just be a display gallery of my own work - boring!). Please get involved.

Original Work Protection

The website is open for public view and due to that nature images or story elements are open for reproduction by the general public. I, Nate Stout, will not use your submissions without your permission but by emailing them to me it is implied that I may post them on this blog. The fact that they will be on the blog with a date of entry will help you prove authentic ownership of your submitted ideas.
