    Hi Clay Fans,
    There are three topics I would like to cover in this weeks newsletter, NCECA Tweets, Claystation T-Shirts, and our Book Store for the Ceramic Arts.

    First of all it was pretty interesting following everyone with their NCECA Tweets. Apparently their was no WIFI at the conference so that held some clay techies back, but still their were plenty of tweets to follow, some posted pics, videos, announced exhibitions, travel updates, and some were just plain Twibberish. To view all the Tweets check out the NCECA Tweets Forum.

    Second, a couple of weeks ago I started a free Claystation T-shirt give-away promotion. So far no one has participated. An order to receive a free t-shirt you just need to get six of your clay loving friends to register with the Claystation. For more information on this promotion click here. It would be great to have some participants, I don't see Facebook or Google offering you any free T-shirts if you refer friends to their site. So know that I care about the clay community and would like all those interested to find out about this online resource, Claystation.com.

    Lastly, I had a week off from teaching during my spring break and spent a great deal of time working on the Claystation's Book Store. I have redone this part of my site at least three times and once again have nearly completed setting it up, its pretty cool and will help you find all sorts of clay related books. If you use the site to buy books or other merchandise we earn a small commission that we can put towards a new computer, hosting costs, and development costs. The store is affiliated with Amazon.com.
