I need Vict-uh, Volunteers for Calendar & next on Blog Tour



On my blog tour, I visited Deb at Ranch Girl Ramblings on Friday - please go by and give her a hello - we chatted a bit and had a great ole time.





What I still need is ten writers/poets to make the calendar we can "auction off" -- you do not have to be nekkid! Be creative - send me a photo to use and tell me what month you want to be. April is taken by the one who suggested it. Once I have the other ten months, I'll figure out how to make a calendar - then we can have an "auction" (I'll figure out the details as I go, I guess!), and the money can go to a good cause. Again, be creative, have fun - be brave! *grin*

NOTE: Calendar isn't a "Secret Graces" (or Tender Graces) calendar -but a writers'/poets' calendar - don't take image of you reading TG or SG for the calendar (though I may or may not do that for my own image, of course!) Be creative, have fun, and show your personality :) But hurry, slots are going - you do not have to send an image first, just email me your month choice.

As well, you do not have to be published -just have a joy of writing, the language, and words!


I'm working through the other suggestions and checking for more at Gumbo Writers (see post below if you don't know what I'm talking about).


Now, y'all go have a good great day -- and do something fun and carefree --



Update!:
HAHA! I have another volunteer (stop almost saying victim, kat!) ....Our own Angie Gumbo Writer is going to be December! yayyy! So, we have April and December -- I haven't chosen a month - I'll wait to take what's left.

Come on y'all!


A Pee Ess: I'm not restricting this to women - men can volunteer, too - this is all in fun, and while we are at it, may as well make it for a good cause too boot -- that "good cause" we can determine together some way; as I said, the details will iron out as I figure all this out *laugh*... So far I have April from "Lives in Cave," and December for Angie Gumbo Writer, and a poet has contacted me and she is interested and only has to pick her Month. Suldog? You still interested? If so, you'll be our first Guy! :-) -- As I'm figuring this out as I go along, so far, just contact me and pick a month - then think of a creative photograph of yourself-doesn't have to be nekkid and then send that photo to me - I'd think in a good JPEG so when I find a creator or printer to make the calendar, the image is clear enough.

We're doing this! This is from the "contest/promo Kat's gone nuts" thingee Gumbo Writer started and I tweaked - and the calendar is Lives in Cave's suggestion.

Come on ... a 'nekkid' calendar would be so much more fun - you could get creative like Helen Mirren and her gang!! Bet you would raise a whole lot more money too! :)

Suldog said...

I'm assuming you want (need) females for the calendar. Otherwise, I'd volunteer...

Kathryn Magendie said...

Males are welcome! still want to? *grin*

Deb said...

I definitely think the calendar should include some brave male voluteers!

Kathryn Magendie said...

ME TOO!

Susan R. Mills said...

What a neat idea. And yes, men should definitely be a part of it.

Titus said...

OK, as you followed the butt-naked suggestion so magnificently, I'll be May if you want me!
Going to have to be very creative as still frosty in these here parts. And will definitely not be nekkid!

Deb Shucka said...

It sure is fun watching all this creative energy sparking around your blog!

Jessica Nelson said...

What a completely awesome idea! Seriously.
So, it's supposed to be pics of someone reading the story, right? Guess I need to read the previous post. You shouldn't have any trouble making a calendar. I think you can do them at walmart or cvs too (if you have that up in your mountains, lol).

Kathryn Magendie said...

Jessica - nope, you don't have to be reading SG or TG - this is all about the individual writer/poet to show their own personality through their image! :) and you don't have to be published either....just love to write!

Deb said...

I'm kinda camera shy. But since you were awesomely brave enough to read nekkid, I'll drum up the courage to volunteer for your calender :) Is March still open?

t i m said...

not brave enough to volunteer, but i'll certainly buy a copy or 3 :)

Rick said...

You are so creative, Kathryn! Where in the world do you get all these ideas?

Glynis Peters said...

Emailed you Kat!

Gianetta said...

I'll be March!
