Many of you know our friend Kate Willette, who's been writing the Working2Walk live blog for the last five years. She's come up with a way to produce a book about the conference that we'd all like to see in as many hands as possible. The way it works is:
- She describes the project plan in detail, and the clock starts ticking.
- She reaches out to everyone who would be interested in the finished product.
- She asks for people to back that project by pre-ordering a book or two, sharing the idea with their own communities, and kicking in a small amount to pay for the cost of production and shipping.
| So far, she's got commitments for more than half the project! There's a time limit, though, and if she doesn't get fully funded by January 6th, there won't be a book! If you can help, go to Kickstarter now and do it! Then add a note and forward this e-mail to everyone you can think of. We really want this to happen; we really want our story to be out there in print, in hospitals and libraries and exercise facilities and homes. |  |
Many thanks from everyone at Unite 2 Fight Paralysis

ReplyDelete"By the way, Wise, this is a good birthday present for you -- a story that had its start right here at CC is going to be in print. Thank you so much, and happy birthday.

Make sure you give Wise a plug, he will feel betrayed if you don't as his mode of operation is promotion. Maybe it wasn't such a good choice to have one of Young's moderators write this book. We shall see, oh and to have Betheny do the flap.
