"And always choose love. Whatever the other choice is, it is utterly inferior when sized up next to love. If you are not sure which is love, here is a guide: love is the most selfless choice." --Me, in my book. Quoting myself, barf, I know. Just trying to make a point here, so stick around.
Let's do something good together, you guys.
Through the month of February, I will be doing weekly drawings for free signed copies of my book. Every $5 donated to A Child's Hope Foundation (currently planning care kits for orphans in Haiti) counts as an entry.
"They need medicines, baby formula, diapers. They don't have any money. We will get totes for these items, put them in a container and get the container shipped," Cook said. "They need help in the worst way."
To enter, donate directly to the foundation (click here) and then leave a comment on this entry with how many entries I owe you. To reiterate: every $5 you donate equals one entry. If you don't feel comfortable inadvertantly sharing your donation amount, either a. use distractingly cool language, like "THREE TIMES A LADY!" to mean three entries/$15, or b. contact me using the "Say Hi!" link above.
I will be updating periodically with totally exciting donation totals. The book drawings will be held every Sunday, beginning February 7th.
(Oh, and please share this with your respective internet circles--the goal is to give as much as we can as a community. TWEET DEEZ, in other words.)
