Not much to say! She's not really on social media besides Twitter, she's published like 8 or 9 indie mostly romance novels, and she's an English teacher in Canada. If you saw my Facebook post about a teacher teaching my book World By Design in her class, that's her. So you can see a tiny wee image of her in that post . But we're both smitten, and both of us wanted each other for quite awhile but thought it'd never happen. And then I took a chance and shot my shot and now we're an US. That's about it!!
If my math is correct (last I checked, this was Writing.com and not Maths.com), y'all raised 634,500 GPs for "RAOK Upgrade Brigade Group" !! I, like, can barely imagine that high, let alone count that high!
Give yourselves rounds of applause, pats on the back, and cake. In fact, take two pieces of cake!
I believe all MBs (with the exception of one- 🐱 panther pwheeler, email me in a week in case I forget. You were gifted an additional one!) have been sent out.
My sincerest thanks to everyone who took part, from donating to sharing to just being overall awesome. You've helped a bunch of people who may need to hang on to their WDC membership during a tough stretch in their lives...WDC might be the one thing keeping them sane through whatever they're going through.
My birthday's in a week. It's a big one. Fifty. That means I've spent nearly half my life associated with WDC.
In lieu of MBs, C-Notes, etc., Here's what I want. Do something nice for someone else.
You may be asking, "But Norb, how can I do that?" Easy. I'll tell you.
"RAOK Upgrade Brigade Group" is an amazing group here that helps people with Upgraded Memberships when they need them the most. They've helped me out a couple times in my 24 years at WDC.
So here's what you do. Click on your GIFT POINTS, Follow these instructions: gift points> send gift points> send to: in "group item ID" box, write RAOK. Send at least 5000 GPs, and I'll give you one of these:
Pretty, ain't he?
One MB per person. CR will be respected. You may donate more than once if you wish to gift that fine, exclusive gentleman to someone else; please note that in a separate donation as well as who it's going to.
Joy's busy haunting will send me a list each day of people who've donated. Then I'll send out your sparkle-sparkle, k? No gettin' antsy on me. I've got a busy week ahead of me as it is.
Tell all your friends! Share this note!! Let's see how much we can raise for an amazing WDC group! And if there's any questions, just ask!
As always, be good to one another.
I love all y'all.
OK everyone!! Sorry, it's been a crazy last couple days. I'm exhausted, and going home tomorrow. MBs will go out most likely tomorrow evening, that way I think I can guarantee everyone CR. Thanks for understanding, and for your support of RAOK!!
I think I did it. LoL. Now, must double check gift points log to be sure I didn't dream or imagine that I did it. You young 50 year olds don't have the memory challenges I do.
Thanks so much Jenny!! Dinner tonight with my mom, tattoo at a friend's shop tomorrow, seeing friends Saturday, and dinner with family friends Sunday...a full weekend!!
