Save The Frogs!
Kenny and I have decided to donate a modest percentage of the royalties from the online sales of The Other Side of Yore to wwww.amphibianark.org, who are at the forefront in the fight to save frogs and other amphibians from the mysterious fungus that threatens them. We figured that since we’re telling the tale of how Frawg saved his species from a mysterious illness in our fiction, then it’s only right to have Frawg do what he can to help save his species in our real world. Online sales include bookstore wholesale orders and internet transactions, but do not include sales of books by Kenny or myself. We just use the money from those sales to buy more books, which we send to reviewers, libraries, publications, and other industry pros for marketing purposes or which we resell to buy…you guessed it…more books!
While expenses involved in producing and marketing “The Other Side of Yore” will keep the donation amount modest (likely 5-10% of author royalties), we are planning to offer several other products over the next 6th months that will be able to contribute a heavier percentage to the cause. These include “Save the Frawg!” T-Shirts with Kenny’s amazing art work and a full album of Frawg Music played and sung by the heroes of “The Other Side of Yore” themselves!
Amphibian Ark has got alot of things planned for 2008: Year of the Frog!
I hope you’ll check back now and again and I’ll keep you posted!
