Here at Smart Bitch headquarters, we are and have been thrilled and bemused by the success of this here website. We love doing this site as much as we like reading romance and discovering new authors, and we luuuuurve™ the Bitchery community of smart people who read and comment on our site.

So, we’ve made two donations in honor of our readership as our gift to you this holiday season. Whichever holiday you celebrate, or even if you don’t celebrate at all, we are most grateful for you and to you for making this site a success.

Reading is Fundamental focuses on children’s literacy in the US, through several programs including its flagship initiative, the National Book Program. This program fosters literacy and interest in reading through motivational activities, family involvement, and book ownership for children. And as we all know, book ownership is among life’s greatest joys.

The second organization that received a donation in honor of our readership is the National Braille Press, a not-for-profit braille printer and publisher that focuses on life skills education for blind individuals, and in producing braille texts for children and adults, so that the blind can experience the joy of reading as well.

And also, braille is like a page printed with hundreds of thousands of tiny man-titties.

Happy holidays everyone, and from the heart of our bottoms, thank you very much for making Smart Bitches, Trashy Books what it is today.

late, but what a great thing to do! I donated some cash to my local library this year, too, since I could actually afford a few extra books, and I love the library.
