Keith & co, here's a draft of our Book Review policy, please let me know what you think.

WSFA Journal Book Review Policy

All reviews are the personal opinions of the authors of the reviews and do not reflect any official view of the WSFA Journal or of WSFA.

Submitting a book to the Journal for review does not establish any obligation for the Journal to print a review of that book.

Unless agreed to in advance, the WSFA Journal will not accept books that have a deadline to be returned.  (i.e. no notes saying "if you do not wish to review my book please send it back to me).

If a book comes to be reviewed the Journal editor can decide to review it himself or ask if anyone in the club is interested in reviewing it.

The Journal is under no obligation to print anything submitted to it (including solicited book reviews) although the Journal has in the past printed everything from semi-literate book proposals (hey, it was hilarious) to an eleven-year old's spelling homework (done in the form of an sf story).
