(Warning/Note: I'm typing this all as it comes to me so my grammar is going to be bad.)

In regards to the "WELCOME BACK!" letters per page idea...how about make it be like a flip book?  The first page would have "W" then "WE" then "WEL" and "WELC" and so on.  Celine (or R.C.) could flip the pages and watch the words unfold before their eyes.

In regards to the name of the book, I'm thinking it could simply be titled All Because Of You.

For the photos I believe they should be black and white to give the feel of the old Hollywood movies a la "Casablanca."  The cover could have two huge spotlights shining toward the heavens with the title inside the light.

Since this is Jennifer's creation I recommend having her named the Director and/or Executive Producer somewhere on the book.  The rest of us can create our own title (Best Boy, Gaffer, Director Of Lighting, etc.)

The book should fully represent the theme the new show is going for.

There should be one section where we state what our all-time favorite Celine movie-related song is.  (Maybe this could get her to realize just how HUGE "Then You Look At Me" is in the fan base.)

(More to come later...)

[nuts2you]

I like this idea,   I think it will work out great.

Jennifer: That AND book is incredible! It's too bad I never saw the show...

I'd like to include

* Mini-biography about ourselves (in alphabetical order by last name! I don't like randomness)
Example - Name:  // Hometown: // Where/when you've already seen Celine: // Fave Hollywood love/romantic movie(s): //
Fave Celine movie song: I agree with letting her know about the "Then You Look at Me" fan base!!!!!! hehehe //
Funny/Cool story on getting Celine's attention and/or to meet her:  // etc, etc

* Few personal photos, Celine-related of course!

* The "making heart shapes with our hands" section


I think ultimately there needs to be a good mixture of words & photos.
If I was the reader, I dislike having to read paragraphs...yet I dislike having to flip through too many photos!

There can be many possible sections to this book! Some of the sections that were already discussed - I am good with!
I guess it'll be good to include a little section in regards to the TCWT

[ladylindsey]

count me in, too- I'll help wherever needed!

[Crystal2042]

Count me in too! I think all the ideas sound great, and I'm sure the book will turn out amazing!

[Celininha17]

I have no ideas to share. Im not creative but I'd LOVE to be part of this project    

[Raevaz]

Any news yet on the project?

We just came across this book idea and we would love to be part of it!

Elaborating on Salla's awesome idea...I think that on the bottom of each page there should be a thumbnail picture in black and white of each fan doing the heart symbol in a film strip border so it looks like cuts of old film footage.  Something like Hearts Across the World. Also, I agree with Salla everyone should be wearing the same color and similar background so it doesn't look too busy.

I think the book can't be too wordy and busy because it becomes overwhelming, more pictures and quote bubbles with fun and cute blurbs.

[Guybrush Threepwood]

sounds awesome! I think a section of A-Z of Celine would turn out great.

[CelineDionFan710]

count me in as well i love the ideas!

[paulisia1984]

Fantastic idea

Count me in as well.

[celinefan5]

When is the deadline?

[Cheerfuljane]

I don't think there is one just yet.

I think that Jennifer is busy right now, but when she gets the ball rolling on this project, I'm sure there will be plenty of time to get your entries in

Jane, you are awesome... and correct.   Everyone, I truly apologize for being away for so long, but I am in the middle of planning my (Las Vegas!) wedding and working full time, so I'm just a bit behind here.  I'm hoping organize a quick outline/draft and submission process so that we can get the ball rolling here.

THANK YOU to everyone!

Jen

[Jennifer]

Also, keep the ideas coming!  Very helpful!

I still love Salla's ideas of a unifying photo for each of us - i.e. making a heart with our hands. What does everyone think?  Any other ideas of unifying photos?

How about design/color scheme ideas?

[Cheerfuljane]

  I knew it.



I'll put my thinking cap on tomorrow.  Right now I need to hit the sack

PS:  Welcome back

[ImACelineDionFan]

I would LOVE to be a part of this! I will do everything and anything that I can to help!

Heres an idea that maybe could work-
We could incorporate "IACBTMN" into it. We could have a page of pictures taken by the fans of various concerts and have the page say "There were moments of gold, and there were flashes of light." And the last page might say at the top "I can barely recall, but it's all coming back to me now" and have a picture of Caesars Palace and at the bottom "Welcome back!"
hahaha! just a thought!

We could all get matching T-shirts? maybeeee....

Color scheme? Red, black, and white? Very Celine-ish colors in my opinion

Great ideas

[ImACelineDionFan]

Oh, and I REALLY like the map idea! Its like RC in CTTEOTW when they came home and he marked on his map where he went!

We could do a unifying photo of everyone holding up a sign of where they came from. like "USA" or "China", etc.
It could go on the page adjacent to the map

My friend put this on facebook.  It gave me an idea.
We could all write "je t'aime" with the heart logo on out hands and give a high five.
It's fitting because, considering you all have 5 fingers , it's Celine's lucky number.

A blood hand print looks scary to me. I thought you wanna post something about murderer at first.  

[Cheerfuljane]

It's not blood.  It's just red paint
