I would like to raise money to publish at least 500 copies of a book with articles promoting the communities and spirit of Fife (a Scottish county) following my numerous interviews during my All in Fife Community Spirit Project (all voluntary and self-funded!). Please read on to get the idea of what the project was.
On September 2012, I started celebrating and promoting Fife’s achievements, spirit of kindness and cooperation by cycling to and through every village and town in Fife.
My intention was to not just visit all Fife’s places over 19 separate days; I also spoke to the local people and asked what they are proud of in their town or village. They could (and lots already have) tell me about a well-known and accomplished person from their village or a project they are really proud of or a business that they feel distinguishes their place. Or perhaps it was a garden or the local church that stood out. Whatever it was, as long as it is positive, I wanted to hear about it. There are already over 50 articles published on the project's website (http://communityprideinfife.co.uk) – do have a browse and read!
I wrote short articles in the weeks following my cycling around Fife and illustrated them with the photography. A lot of them are already up on the website.
This is a feel-good project. I am a Polish national. I lived in Strathkinness near St Andrews, although now have relocated to west London for job purposes. I love Fife’s people and countryside and I believe that this part of Scotland needs to be celebrated and promoted. I think we need to remember to be optimistic, upbeat and acknowledge all the good things that happen locally that too frequently go unnoticed. Perhaps it is particularly important in the current times of economic crisis.
The cycling part of the project finished in July 2013. Now, I am finishing writing the articles and getting prepared to publish the book.
Copies of the book will be provided free of charge to those who agreed to being interviewed. Others will be sold with all proceeds benefiting Fife organizations taking part in it. I would like to publish at least 500 copies.
Obviously, the more money I raise, the more copies I will be able to publish! The more copies I can get, the more I will be able to promote the community spirit of Fifers!
