THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE...

Later in 2012, I am coming out with two new
 poetry books that will appear on lulu.com
and other retailers.  The one working title
 I have is called The Devil's Backbone 
which is a rough compilation of my poetry
that talked about the time of having the
spinal ailment, scoliosis.
Some of the proceeds of this book will go to
The National Scoliosis Foundation.
The point of this is to raise awareness of this
ailment and to help others understand what those
with it go through and help families of those
who have scoliosis to endure it considering
there is no cure for it.
My hope is to help others know that they
are not alone.

Be watchful for it!!
LOVE TO YOU ALL-
*S*

ON MENDED WINGS FOR NAMI!

One  of my charity works is one for the National Alliance for Mental Illness (NAMI) and I am putting my time for them because an anthology that was created for support of this organization is now on sale in major retailers in North America, Europe and Asia!! It is in the following countries: The US, Canada, The Entire UK, France, Germany and in Japan. The anthology is called  On Mended Wings  and it is a compilation of poetry and art to benefit this organization to compensate for medication and other care that other medical programs that do not provide service to those that have mental ailments. The point of this book is to raise awareness of these problems and to promote restoration and healing for those in need.

A wonderful friend came forward and she introduced me to this organization and I felt the need to be a part of it and donate my work to it. This also was a big help in getting my work out there quickly, for which it has. My hope is to keep you posted on all the bits and happenings everywhere. May you enjoy the events that make The Gypsy Poet happen...
