UPDATE:
Hey there fellow D's
The S-day is approaching fast! Please send in your birthday wishes for Simon as soon as you possibly can. If you feel the task below is too complicated, don't be discouraged - the important thing is to participate! So send in whatever you wish and be a part of this project - let Simon know how much he is loved and appreciated.
Thanks!

Simon’s birthday is coming up and I thought we could do a special Birthday Book project from us all to him.
Let’s make his 55th a memorable one, by celebrating one of the most important contributions he has made to the band, and indeed our lives: the words.
RULES:
This is what we need from each one of you:
Content is paramount – prettiness secondary! If you don’t have computer ‘skills’ you can send the text and photos anyway and we will make a nice frame for it.
Your contributions will be compiled on a dedicated page in Wordpress: happybirthdaysimon.wordpress.com/
DEADLINE: Submit your contribution by 25th October 2013 to simonsbirthdaybook2013@gmail.com.
On the 27th of October, the complete page will go live around the world – and hopefully Simon will see it! We hope we can count on you and the fansites, boards and groups in the Duran Duran world to help out spreading the word around. Just copy and paste this text!
NOTES:
We will be able to re-size your contribution if needed. All submissions will be used solely for this project.
Once you send in your contribution, you will be sent a confirmation e-mail back from us. If you do not receive a confirmation e-mail within 24 hours, we did not receive your entry. Please re-send it.
Most important: This is for Simon’s Birthday. Any entries that mention his personal life (family, children etc.) will be returned to you and you will be asked to either edit your contribution or not have it included. BE RESPECTFUL.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. No question is too dumb. Don’t wait until the last minute! Get your submissions in! The more contributions, the better the book!
Thanks,
Paula Blank

RULES:
This is what we need from each one of you:
- Choose 1 poem/lyric Simon has written that has a special, personal meaning to you, and explain why - what was happening, how those words helped, or were a stepping stone, or a support in your life at that moment;
- Be concise, keep it under 200 words;
- Choose a photo of Simon from the period when that lyric was written/released;
- Optionally include a photo of yourself;
- Include your name, city, country, and optionally your age (dob);
- Make sure your file is no larger than 18 x 26 cm (B5, landscape), 75 dpi, preferably with a white background;
- Send your entry to simonsbirthdaybook2013@gmail.com arranged as per your taste on a collage or as separate items.
