Eating people to let people eat - my charity write-a-thon!
12 years ago
Well, pretty much what it says on the tin. :D On this coming Tuesday, the 27th August, I intend to find a quiet spot at eight o'clock in the morning, and write solidly for twelve hours. Not including breaks. The full thing should take from about eight until ten o'clock at night.
Why? Well...
-I want to write professionally, as has been my dream since eight years of age. Obviously this will require long, long periods of sustained writing, so practice like this would be great.
-As you might have noticed, my pace has slowed quite a bit lately, and I don't know how soon it'll pick up. It's an important time, and sadly ability to write tortuous vorishness may not come quite as much in handy. However, a day set apart for it could allow me to get a great deal done. I know the next Chapter of The Taste of Terror is now months overdue, and I want it done at last. And it will really be enormous fun to write the rest of it, given what's planned. Eee hee hheeeeee....
So, I'm going to do this. And as a moral motivator to me to do it seriously and not be distracted by amusing videos on utube and so on, I've decided to make it open. If anyone would be kind enough to sponsor such an endeavour, I'd be delighted to accept them. All and any proceeds will go to Oxfam, an excellent charity which provides aid and fights poverty across the globe - including, of course, helping the many poor people who, far from the multitude of delicious squirming meals Goldeneye and his ilk tend to find, suffer from starvation. That anyone should go hungry is a terrible thing, and since eating each other isn't "acceptable" in this strange human culture, I hope to try and do something to help.
Please do not by any account feel you have to donate, nor that you have to give a large amount. But if everyone who's been kind or daft enough to watch me donated two dollars, we'd end up with more than $400. Little things matter, as Damian would proclaim, while Alex makes little whimpering noises beneath a claw.
So, I'm under goldeneyegryphon[at]yahoo.co.uk at PayPal. I'll keep this updated. Thank you!
