Four Paws ~ The Quillective Project ~ Poets Making a Difference
I'm honored to share with you today a collaborative effort from some masterful wordweavers...nothing inspires me more than seeing a group come together to support the common good, and the members of The Quillective project have brought forth a cause that needs our support more than ever. I know I'm not the only one who prefers sharing my secrets with members of the four paw species...and do what I can when I can to help any cause that protects these often labeled "lessor" species. Would love to see you embrace this project with as much passion as the brilliant creatives who have come together to make it happen. Read on to learn more about the work, the authors, and the cause...Paws up good people...paws up!
ABOUT
FOUR PAWS
The Quillective
Project's mission is to turn the power of the written word into an instrument
of compassion, hope, and generosity by putting that power directly in the hands
of organizations that share our principles.
The 2013
Quillective Project is Four Paws, a poetry anthology featuring bestselling
authors Scott Morgan, Ben Ditmars, Amber Jerome~Norrgard and Robert Zimmermann,
with a "fourward" by Russell Blake.
100% of all
proceeds from the sale of Four Paws will benefit The Dallas Humane Society's
no-kill shelter, Dog & Kitty City. Your purchase of this book makes a
difference.
The book goes
live on February 24th, 2013 on Amazon.com.
The Quillective Project began
as an idea as a poetry collaboration between Amber Jerome-Norrgard and Robert
Zimmermann, and not long after, it expanded to include Ben Ditmar and Scott Morgan.
Originally slated to be released around Christmas, that idea was changed when
Ben suggested having all the proceeds go to benefit a charity. And an idea was
born. Why not make 100% of the proceeds benefit a worthy cause, not just for
this one book, but for future collaborations between Amber and other authors?
Why not start something that has nothing to do with anyone in particular but
using the combined voices of many and the power of the written word the
Quillective Project can benifit those who are not as fortunate.
Even if someone
sees this poetry book and doesn’t buy it, if it inspires them to go out and
make a positive change in the world, no matter how small, that alone is
priceless. And this isn’t just a onetime benefit. As long as the organizations
that are chosen as beneficiaries for The Quillective Project’s yearly
collaborations are in existence, they will benefit. Every time a book is
purchased, whether one week, one year, ten years, one hundred years from now?
It's still going to benefit each organization.
