ScriptFrenzy Update

Well, I have fallen off the script bandwagon. Could be due in part to the subject I chose. I love the story and want to do more with it but a script is not quite right.

I do need to get back to writing. I've been focusing on some other parts of my life and the writing has slipped further down the list than I like.

Perhaps one of my birthday resolutions will be to write a little every day. (What? Doesn't everyone make birthday resolutions?)

Dare Campaign

As this is writing related ...

I am excited to be participating in the Dare Campaign for the Stephen Lewis Foundation. I’m taking on a personal challenge to raise funds for community-based organizations in Africa working to turn the tide of AIDS. Help me reach my fundraising goal! Every dollar counts! It’s easy to contribute. All you need to do is click on the link below - or copy and paste it into your browser - and then click on the Donate button in the top-right corner of my Dare page. Click here to sponsor me!

My Dare page

By supporting my Dare, you support my own daring effort, and the millions of Africans who rise to meet the challenges of the pandemic with extraordinary acts of courage, ingenuity, determination, and the strength in their communities.

What is my dare? If I reach my fundraising goal by the end of 2012, I will write 4 short stories or poems (from subjects suggested by my sponsors). They will be the only people to see them during 2013. If we raise over $200, there will be more words. And if you'd just like to support a great cause, you don't have to read anything. :-)

If you can't donate at this time, a signal boost would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
