Initiate Email Address Authentication

Peek·into·the·Past strives to prevent story entries from claiming a false identity. Along with the story itself, you submit a heavily redacted copy of your current official State identification - all personal identifying information is blacked-out (obscured) except for the name and address (and the photo, if choosing to publish a self-image). ONLY the name will be published. The address will NOT be published or otherwise shared! The copy must show the validation date and official State identification markings.

The address is used solely to send you via the US Post Office your Identification Passcode. DO NOT SHARE THIS CODE WITH ANYONE. The Identification Passcode serves to authenticate you as the story's active StoryTeller and to confirm your permission for story and profile modifications which you initiate from time to time. Your name, as StoryTeller, will be published within the Story. You may publish your choice of a self-image; it just must resemble that image on your State identification.
CAUTION -
Your name as submitted below must exactly agree with that on the ID document. Also, if it is not current, or the State identification markings are absent, or your street address does not appear, there will be a delay preparing a draft story so to cure these issues.
If for some reason you foresee a problem meeting these requirements, please use the Visitor Portal, before submitting the story, to open a discussion for a resolution.

Have you ever published a story on Peek·into·the·Past?(Required)

Yes

The passcode previously issued to you remains active.

You will use that passcode to publish a new story. Do you need a replacement Identification Passcode? Do you not recall the passcode or have reason to believe its identity has been compromised?

I recall the passcode and believe its identity has not been compromised. I do not want to change my Profile email address. My name on current State Identification agrees with my Profile Record.

I do not recall the passcode or do believe its identity has been compromised. Or, my name on current State Identification has changed from that on my Profile Record.
