Blogging for a cause

We’re writing an e-book for thdrLogoSGKhe cure. That’s right, WE are writing an e-book. And by “WE” I mean any blogger or writer that wants to be part of Blogging for A Cause.

Lance Ekum, who writes the blog Jungle of Life, and I have teamed up to work on something very near and dear to our hearts.

We’re working together to raise money to support breast cancer research through the Susan G. Komen foundation. To raise money to support this wonderful organization, we’re creating an e-book which we’ll then sell, with 100% of the profits going to the Susan G. Komen foundation.

To make this a reality, we need your help.

If you are a writer, we would love for you to be a part of this e-book project.  All it takes is for you to choose a favorite post from your site. That’s it!  Your post can be on any subject at all from a favorite story, workout, recipe, quote, idea, whatever! We’ll include the article you select in the e-book with a link to your site.

If you would like be a part of Blogging for A Cause, here are a few more details:Picture 18

What We Need:

  • Your name as you want it to appear in the e-book
  • Your Website address and name of your site
  • A link to the post you’re including for submission
  • A copy of the entire article pasted into the body of the email

Please send your information to:  joanna.sutter@gmail.com by Friday, October 16th.

Within a couple of weeks, we’ll both have posts written and links to buy the e-book.  Note that there is no obligation for you to buy one of the e-books.  If, however, you do choose to know that all the proceeds will go to breast cancer research.  We’ll be selling the e-books for a suggested donation of $5.

Thanks to Jay Schryer who inspired Lance and I to act, to everyone who already submitted articles, and to Mack Richardson who generously agreed to help with the e-book design.

Together, we will make a difference!

With appreciation,
