Oh god. When I first saw this post I got so excited and piddled. I'd like to contribute in a number of ways. Mainly with artwork though and a story perhaps.  :D

That would be very cool.

Awesome, I can definitely contribute from the olden days of discovering Riggs from the early 2000s and my first Turbo experience in the early 90s..

Eh, maybe a pamphlet.  I do have a lot of mundane(to the public) memories from growing up with the Turbob aside from the few stories of interaction with TTI & WD.  Even those however, aren't gonna be 100% accurate memories, wish I recorded it all!

That depends on what people contribute.

Basically, my view of the book is quite casual - almost like a series of printed forum posts where people can say what they like, as long as it relates to the PCE. I'd like the focus to be on personal writings or creations, so although there is room for 'A History of <something>' I think it would be nice if the bulk of it consists of personal stories, feelings about the system and games etc.

But I'm not going to try to steer this too much in any direction. Think of it as something we are all making as a tribute to the PC Engine. I'm just here to edit it and slap it all together.

This is wonderful Paul!  Super cool!!  I will be scrapping together some things we've chatted about here and pics from MGCs and other meetups to submit to you for this!

Paul when do you plan on having this completed?

I might submit some stuff particularly some art stuff if I can get off my lazy ass during this winter.

Is there a deadline for submitting work?

If I can get most content by the end of 2016 that would be great. That's not a reason to wait that long though ;)

Ok. I have to contribute something.

The problem is that I haven't figured it out what I will do yet.

In my defense, I just learned about this 15 seconds ago. :)
