It's our One Year Anniversary--Calling ALL YA Authors--can you help??
Thanks for doing the work, Sam - looking forward to the celebration. (And you have my info.)
Donate an original work or just an offer to write something? Either way I'm in, just let me know what you need cause I'm slow :)

Either way I'm in, just let me know what you need cause I'm slow :)"We're looking for a free copy of an existing ebook or two to award as prizes, but writing something is good too :) (I'm donating a couple of my shorts in ebook, but also writing a story.)
I'll do both, just email me what you guys need.
John wrote: "I'll do both, just email me what you guys need."ah John so generous--thank you--will be in touch!
John wrote: "I'll do both, just email me what you guys need."Thanks John!!
I can also donate everything of my works. or I can make a special book just for this contest. What are your suggested themes anyway?

You mean knocking on my door and spoiling my cat?

We're just going to do some contests and events for the anniversary week, and want to have some prizes for the winners.

Little Eddie told me it is impossible to "spoil" a cat.

Little Eddie is a known liar when it comes to treats and pets.

Just because he made you a key to my place does not mean that is an understanding. I am pretty sure that's breaking and entering.

The cat doesn't own the stuff in the house. Though he will tell you differently.
