>Dear Mr. Brach,

>I'm contacting you in the hope of establishing a mutual link between our
>websites.
>
>My company, Venus Communications is the publisher of a new book on
>penjing by Mainland Chinese author Qingquan Zhao entitled "Penjing:
>Worlds of Wonderment". Penjing is the ancient Chinese art of creating
>miniature trees and landscapes. Its Japanese cousin, bonsai, was
>introduced in the West decades ago, but little had been known about
>penjing until recently. The book is the first comprehensive source on
>the subject, and it has been very well received. Among bonsai circles,
>"Penjing" is the most talked about book in years.
>
>Our new website provides information about the book. Furthermore, it
>seeks to promote the art of penjing in general by offering a forum on
>the arts of bonsai and penjing and by featuring selected articles and an
>extensive book list on penjing and related aspects of Chinese culture.
>The website will continue to grow as new information will be added. I
>believe it is a helpful and useful link for visitors to your site (which
>is excellent!)
>
>I look forward to your response.
>
>Best regards, Karin Albert
