ARCs for Charity, future guests, and other news
Congrats to Ruth Schaller, who just won a signed copy of Rachel Vincent's Rogue! Everyone else, stop crying and go buy the book.Coming up later this month we have Cynthia Eden, author of Hotter After Midnight, then in May there'll be Jenna Black (Hungers of the Heart); in early June, Nancy Haddock (La Vida Vampire, which just came out today) and in late June, Stephanie Kuehnert (I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone).
ARCs FOR CHARITY
I still have a few Advance Reading Copies (ARCs) of Wicked Game, and it’s time I started using them for good instead of evil:
1. MS Walk Donations
I’m participating in the National Multiple Sclerosis Society 5K Walk on Sunday, April 13. If you donate to my team, I’ll put you in a drawing to win an ARC. It’ll be like a raffle: donate $5 and get 5 chances; donate $25 and get 25 chances (not to mention a warm feeling). Please send whatever you can to help overcome this devastating disease.
Deadline for entry: April 12
2. Royalty Donation
I donate ten percent of author royalties to a designated charity related to each of my books. For EYES OF CROW it’s Conservation International, and for VOICE OF CROW it’s the Wounded Warrior Project.
Send an e-mail to jeri@jerismithready.com and suggest a music-related charity that should receive 10% of author royalties from Wicked Game. If I choose your suggestion, you’ll win an ARC! And again: warm feeling.
Deadline for entry: April 12
Note: I’m looking for a charity related to rock ‘n’ roll that does some good in the world. Habitat for Humanity’s Musicians Village in New Orleans is a great example, but that project is almost complete (yay!).

...you're just a disgustingly good person, aren't you. :)

I can only dream of a royalty check that would buy these charities more than a cup of coffee. ;-)
