			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of my good friends came to me the other day. Each year her place of employement puts on a silent auction to raise money for <a href="http://www.jdrf.org" target="_blank">JDRF</a> (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation). She explained to me that the people at her work are voracious readers and asked if I wanted to donate an autographed book. Unfortunately, the only book I have to offer right now is a fantasy erotic romance, so I&#8217;m not sure how well that would fly in the work place. I did explain that I am a member of a vast community of writers and would put the request out there to my fellow authors. </p>
<p>The auction is slated for September 16th. I&#8217;d like to have all donated books by September 12th (September 14th, at the latest). If you are interested in donating to a great cause, please mail your books to:</p>
<p>Cynthia Arends<br />
5013 Wallingford Dr. NW<br />
Comstock Park, MI 49321</p>
<p>If there are any other questions or concerns, please email me at <a href="mailto:sidney@sidneyayers.com">sidney@sidneyayers.com</a></p>
<p>Thanks!<br />
Sidney / Arianna</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve finished up editing my blog template and I&#8217;m thrilled it turned out so well. I&#8217;m going to try and blog at least twice a week.  I&#8217;d love to hear your comments and feedback on what you&#8217;d like to see. I&#8217;m going to attempt to offer writing related materials and of course keep it fun for the readers. So if you have any ideas, feel free to post it below in the comments! I&#8217;ve decided I&#8217;d choose one random commenter to win a copy of Arianna Skye&#8217;s <a href="http://eternalpress.ca/wingsofdesire.html" target="_blank">Wings of Desire</a>. Follow the link to learn more about the book. </p>
<p>Also, if you&#8217;d like to be linked, post your link in the comments and I&#8217;ll get you added to my blogroll.</p>
<p>Now that I&#8217;ve got the website and blog taken care of I can now concentrate on finishing the 2nd book. Woot!</p>
<p>Peace and love,<br />
Sidney</p>
