"I'm part of a group of authors who have planned an event we're calling: Unleash Your Story: Make a Difference. This fun event will bring writers and readers together to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF). Cystic Fibrosis is the most common fatal genetic disease in the U.S. Thirty years ago life expectancy for a child born with CF was only five, but through the efforts of the CFF and others, life expectancy and quality of life has increased dramatically. We hope through our fund-raiser to help the CFF continue these efforts and to someday soon find a cure!
Our event, Unleash Your Story and Make A Difference, is targeted at both readers and writers. There will be fun contests and prizes to see who can rack up the highest pages read (for readers), word counts (for writers), and funds raised. Plus writers can track their own productivity by trying to keep up with our Pacesetter Author, New York Times Bestselling Author, Debbie Macomber.
We are hoping you will consider joining in our efforts by doing one or more of the following:
•Start your own team. Read/write on your own or form a team with your friends to raise money, read books, complete your work-in-progress, and win prizes together.
•Donate individually, and ask others to support you. Through the CFF web site every participant will get their own personal web page where people can donate in that participant' s name. (All donations are tax deductable.) And, of course, win prizes.
•Donate a prize for us to give away to teams or individuals. We are looking for anything and everything readers or writers might enjoy—books, critiques, get-aways, lunch with an author/agent/editor, crafts by you—you name it! (Again whatever you donate is tax deductable and you will receive a receipt from the CFF)
• Motivate your fans to read more and write more by posting your progress and participation on your personal web site or blog.
We're really hoping you will consider joining our efforts. We think it will be a fun way to help others live longer, more enjoyable lives. For more information email info@unleashyourstory.com or visit our web site at http://www.unleashyourstory.com"
Support my efforts!
