Gods, I don't time to do this justice.
Suffice it to say, some of the circles I travel in don't intersect the ones where the filkers on my FL live - and this is as good a time as any to rectify the situation.
Folks, you gotta give this a try. Seriously. There aren't many better times - someone needs your help.

A fire sale is what you have when the house is on fire and you need to get things out of it, right? 'Here, buy my stuff before it gets smoke-damaged'. Well, a very good friend of mine has a house that's on fire right now, and that means I'm having a fire sale to try to help her put it out.
For the next week, all proceeds of sales from my first album, Pretty Little Dead Girl, will be going straight to her and her family, to help them get through a rather nasty financial crunch -- basically, she starts her new job in two weeks, but until then, there's no money to do fun things like 'feed the resident small child' and 'keep the electricity running'. If we can manage to sell forty copies of the album, at $15 a pop, we'll raise six hundred dollars, and get them through this stupid speed bump.
To order Pretty Little Dead Girl and donate the proceeds, go to:

Put 'fire sale' in the comments field. We still have to charge postage (and the international order surcharge, for people outside the US), since I don't have any money either, but all actual sale-of-CD proceeds will go straight to the donation pool. I'm probably going to do a few art sales or auctions to help this along, later in the week.
Please, feel free to repost this entry, modified as necessary, especially if you have a reading list that differs substantially from mine. The fire sale will run from Thursday, June 28, through Thursday, July 5.
I'm going to mention something - read very carefully. She apologizing because she can't comp the postage because she doesn't have the money either.
I love her pieces for being honest - and for not doing anything less that what she possibly can for a friend.
This is her first album - I reviewed it some moons ago, so I can vouch for the Good this is -
I'll have this album and the new one, Stars Fall Home at AX this weekend, if anyone wants a listen. I will write the review for SFH as soon as I can do it justice - and that's more than the fifteen minutes I'm taking for this, yo. ^_^
