A few years ago, I read about people who went to the RWA and RT conventions and received too many extra books. They were leaving them as a tip for the maids. I’m thinking of this because the RT convention is going on now.

If people are getting free books that they don’t want (or have gently used books that they don’t want), I have a good cause just waiting for books.

The Volunteers for Animal Welfare is a low cost spay and neuter clinic that caters to feral cats. They’re having a book sale to raise money on Long Island on Sunday May 17th at the Sound Beach Inn. They are accepting new and gently used books, which they will sell, to try to raise money to pay to spay and neuter feral cats on Long Island. (There are VAW branches all over the country.)

People can mail their books to:
Volunteers for Animal Welfare
15 Mastic Rd
Sound Beach, NY 11789

Donors will receive receipts that they can use for tax deductions. Books should be received no later than May 3rd.

Best,
Lucinda

PROMO OPP and a chance to do a good deed!

Amazon is censoring any book with so-called adult content. This includes racy romances, like mine. Follow the link to read more about it.

What has happened to me so far today (and it’s only 8:30am):
1) White standard poodle dyed green.
2) Locked upstairs with a spiderweb of rubberbands and a laughing 11 year old.
3) Assaulted with sillystring
4) Found water balloons attached to every faucet
5) Opened silverware drawer and found… nothing
6) Poured milk on cereal. It was green. and not from age.
7) Pulled up toiletseat and a firecracker exploded.
Toilet water was green.
9) Found several cans of catfood in the fridge. It does not belong there.

I hate this day. Except for the revenge part…

What I’ve done to others so far today:
1) Put dry dogfood in the cereal bowls and served with green milk to laughing 11-year old and 6-year old.
2) Replaces SO’s car key with a key that looks just like it but doesn’t work. (Had a lot fun getting it made at Ace, lol.)
3) Packed birdseed for 11-year old and 6-year old for their school snack.
4) Now off to call mother and tell her I’m pregnant. Or moving to India.
