Natalie said:An e-book, and hopefully one that can be purchased in print, sounds like a fantastic idea to me, Jonna! I happen to think that your English is great, but I know it would be a concern for you. To me, pictures are more helpful than words, especially for beginners, and being too scientific about things can really take the fun out of seed collecting and growing. Sometimes you just want to grab some seeds and plant them, without too much information to confuse you. You've always explained things so that even I could understand them, and I know I would enjoy anything that you write. Maybe you can find volunteers to help with the photos of seeds. It would be an overwhelming task to get a photo of every seed, but with some help, it could be possible.

Natalie said:Me too, even though I have posted very few. I do have others though that I'd be more than happy to share. I'm sure that there are others, like me, who have photos but haven't posted them. I can't imagine anyone who wouldn't be willing to help with this!

Natalie said:Jonna, if you do decide to go ahead with the book, you should start a thread about it, and ask for photos of what you need. I am sure that you will get lots of help! And, it will be good advertising for the project!
You must have been a good student in school! Your English is better than many who only know English!
