Today kicks off the big Writers 4 Writers campaign. Started by
M Pax,
Christine Rains,
Stephen Tremp, and
C.M. Brown, four of the most incredible authors out there, this project aims to help we writers get the word out about our stories via Facebook and Twitter, increase traffic to our blogs/sites, help an author make the Amazon Top 100 in at least one category and create a buzz that will hopefully increase sales beyond the initial promo period.
The first author for this tremendously brilliant undertaking is
Nancy S. Thompson and her debut novel,
The Mistaken. Please visit her
site and see what you can do to help Nancy and Writers 4 Writers get the word out. You can also visit the
Writers 4 Writers Facebook page and Like it to support the cause.
Here's a bit about
The Mistaken...
Tyler Karras is an honest man, a transplanted Brit living the American
dream, but his charmed life takes an unexpected turn when his brother,
Nick, is coerced into joining ranks with San Francisco’s Russian mafia.
Ty intervenes to secure Nick’s freedom, yet only succeeds in incurring
their wrath. With no choice but to accept Nick’s new life, Ty returns
to his own, but his dreams are dashed when his wife—pregnant with their
first child—is killed, the victim of a reckless crime.
Despondent
and bitter, Ty macerates his grief in alcohol. From the depths of the
bottle screams a voice, howling for vengeance. His target is a
stranger, the woman who drew his wife toward her death. He doesn’t know
her, but he’ll find her, and when he does, he will make her pay, for a
deal has been struck with Nick’s Russian associates, enslaving her into a
life of bondage. But as Ty moves forward in a cloud of alcohol, he
mistakes the wrong woman for his intended victim and now all his plans
have gone straight to hell.

From Sarah, With Joy is celebrating 600 posts. Stop by and give her some props. It's hard creating posts and to reach 600 is awesome.
And now for that Something to Remember. I want to encourage all of you out there to donate to your local food banks. I found myself in the position of needing to get my groceries from mine this last week and it brought back memories of childhood when the steel mill closed. There are so many of us struggling to keep our heads above the rising tide and those food banks are a life line. Whether it's just a few cans of soup to last the week til that meager pay day or whole box of food because you got sick or hurt and had to go the Emergency Room which wiped out your food money, those food banks are an amazing resource. So please when you read this, donate some food or even your time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart in advance, you guys are the best.
