*Your First ME Garb* -Middle Eastern garb can be simple or complex 
depending on the geographical area and time frame. What does your first 
ME garb look like? Here is a competition for beginners or for those who 
happen to still have their first attempts. Bring us your first Middle 
Eastern Garb to show everyone. Simple documentation is requested-please 
tell us what it is. [Sponsor Mistress Kisaiya Zingara ]

*Travel Diaries*- In the late 1500's and 1600's as travel became more 
possible and frequent, people often wrote travelogues or diaries to 
share with the folks back home. These journals became popular reads for 
the literate and were wildly popular. While some authors were legitimate 
(like Marco Polo or Ibn Battuta), some authors wrote wild imaginings and 
stated them as real (see The Travels of Sir John Mandeville). So write 
us one page or entry from your persona's travel diary and describe an 
experience as you travel in the Middle East. This entry can be as 
accurate or wildly inaccurate as you can get away with. The only 
documentation requested for this entry is a note describing who your 
persona is. [Sponsor Mistress Kisaiya Zingara ]

*Bardic*- written or performed bardic. Extra points given for Middle 
Eastern theme and for documentation. [Sponsor Lady Alesone MacCormack]
