Billy O’Keefe liked an update for Women Like Us

65 books, 29 days!!  Plus a raffle!

Hello all and Happy Tuesday!  We're getting closer and closer, but there's still a ways to go so why not jump in and pre-order "Women Like Us" if you haven't yet (or you can order again even if you already have...just saying!)  Today I'm also announcing what I hope will be the last raffle for people who order the book. This one has to do with our Beagle Freedom Project adoptee Derric. If you don't know about the Beagle Freedom Project (see link below), this wonderful organization negotiates freedom for Beagles and other animals from labs where they were being subjected to either medical or cosmetics testing.  When these beagles are in captivity they are not know by names, but by letters and numbers tattooed in their ears.  Derric actually has two tattoos, which means he was in two different labs during the first five years of his life.  Some other adopters have honored their beagles with tattoos of their own, and I always loved that idea. Why?  Well, mainly because I consider Derric such a brave little man -- how many of us could be put through what he went through and still emerge the fun, playful little clown he is today. So...the raffle (which has already started and has some names in the hat) -- I will pick a winner from the next bunch of pre-orders and that winner will help select the design and placement of the tattoo honoring Derric.  Here, watch the video for more (plus you'll get a glimpse of Derric and his beagle bro George!)

Because it's hard to make out the design I'm toying with, here's a look too. And hey if you are artistically inclined and have any ideas, please submit them because I can't draw for S**t!

By the way, if publish goal is met I will be donating 10% of book sales to the Beagle Freedom Project, and here's the link if you want to know more:

So that's it for now.  Thanks for your support so far.  And have a great day.
