Dear Readers and animal lovers:
In celebration of my 40th
B-Day, I am going to donate 40% from all profits of
Dizzlemuck
earned between November 28, 2010 and January 1, 2011 to Best
Friends Animal Sanctuary.*
Best Friends Animal Sanctuary
is located in Utah, and you may remember it as the place that
took in the Michael Vick dogs. From their website:
The
Best Friends Animal Sanctuary at Angel Canyon, at the heart of
the Golden Circle of national parks in southern Utah, is home on
any given day to about 2,000 dogs, cats, and other animals, who
come from shelters and rescue groups around the country for
special care they can only receive at Best Friends.
Most of the animals who find their
way to Best Friends have special physical or behavioral needs,
and our expert staff of veterinarians, trainers and caregivers
offer them all the help they require. Most of them are ready to
go to good new homes after just a few weeks of special care. A
few, who are too old or too sick, or who have suffered extra
trauma, find a home and haven at the sanctuary, and are given
loving care for the rest of their lives.
My wife and I have been supporters of theirs for
quite some time, and I have always been inspired by the work
they do and the way in which they do it. The fact that they
took in the Vick dogs when no one else wanted them, and that
they have shown that those animals are still full of love and
gentleness, is reason alone to support them, but that is merely
a part of what they do. Go here for more information on them:

Be sure to tell your family
and friends that if they purchase a copy of
Dizzlemuck
between November 28th and January 1st, 40%
of the profits will go to help rescued dogs, cats, rabbits, pigs, and
other lovable critters... and support a not-so-young writer, as
well.
Dizzlemuck
is, again, a comic novel about a band of
marauding wee folk who invade small-town America. It features
Nature, magic, nymphomania, clairvoyance, mushroom trips... and
the rediscovery of love.
