My personal message:

Thanks for visiting my NYWC Write-a-Thon Fundraising Page! While I may not be coordinated enough or athletic enough to participate in the kind of triathalon or marathon that so many of you seem to be training for, I'm really looking forward to being part of a grueling event a little better suited to my own personal skills...the third annual NY Writers Coalition (NYWC) Write-a-Thon!

This daylong writing marathon and festival will benefit NYWC's free creative writing programs. I'll join other writers at Manhattan's NY Center for Independent Publishing to write our little hearts out until our fingers are numb and our minds are delerious.

Thanks in advance to everyone for your generosity as I 'go the distance' on May 17. Your pledges will help NYWC continue to offer free, unique and powerful creative writing workshops in neighborhoods throughout NYC.

P.S. Don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too! Oh, and remember, donations are 100% tax-deductible.

Thanks again!
