I&#8217;ve been teaching workshops for library staff for almost ten years and I didn&#8217;t see this coming. An organization that I often work for asked me if I&#8217;d like to have them get a copy of my book into every library in my state. I said Yes! So part of my donations will go to libraries, as I&#8217;m also comitted to giving the book to hospitals&#8211;especially those with a NICU&#8211;and literary organizations that serve families who want books but can&#8217;t afford them. All I have to do is to deliver about 150-180 books (once they arrive) and they&#8217;ll ship them out. Now that is a gift and a wonderful example of how one thing (I said I&#8217;d give away half my print run) leads to another (their generosity.) Thanks to all who have already pledged to my campaign.
