Toni McGee Causey wrote a punch of an entry over at Murderati today about why writing, and who writing is for. Warning: emotional wallop packed. Have tissues nearby.

I know from email messages and stat analysis that our site has a good number of readers from India, and as hell and the handbasket seem to have made themselves comfortable in Mumbai, I hope our Indian readers know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. Keep safe.
I found this amazing and inspiring article on the Yahoo!News Book/Publishing News page, which lately is about as full of good news as the Dow Jones industrial average. A young man in Albuquerque raised over $6000.00 to help build a library in Ethiopia as part of a nonprofit charity’s efforts to improve literacy in that country. Ethiopia Reads has built 30 libraries and aims for 100 by 2010.
Tobyn Pulice raised the money by selling “Shout Outs” for .25c during morning announcements at school, which brought in $1800, and then helped organize a community golf tournament.
Ethiopia Reads was founded by Yohannes Gebregeorgis, who grew up with a complete lack of books to the point that “he can remember each one he read until he was 19 years old.”
Pretty awesome, right? Ok, now for the fun section. This is the part that nearly knocked me out with the giggles:
A website that reviews romance novels from a couple of smart bitches who will always give it to you straight. No bullshit. No gushing--unless the author really deserves it.
There are not enough acronyms or emoticons or LOLcats in the world to convey my utter bogglement that this piece of excrement (liquid alternating with solid) was a) written and b) published.
Ha! position11. I wasn’t really sure…

Yum! Jason Lewis! Nice casting.
I second that one.
I still need to read the book. It’s on my shelf.
I love the links. I put cliterature in my favorites! And I think I’m going to try and make an altered romance now!
I loved all of these. Congrats to the winners!
