COMPOSERS FOR RELIEF: ONE YEAR LATER

Okay so i'm totally copying this from Sam's Facebook post, but she totally has way better words than I do.

So, without further ado in Samantha's Words:

Today, November 8th, marks the one-year anniversary of Super Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda. The world's most destructive storm devastated the Philippines, killing over 6000, displacing over 4 million and drastically affecting the lives of over 14 million people....

Over the past year, an incredible international team of composers, musicians, writers, graphic designers and films students, led by Peter Ebbinghaus, worked together for a creative solution in support of the relief efforts for the Philippines. This unparalleled collaboration gave rise to theComposers for Relief organization.

In honor of these continued efforts, the Composers for Relief will launch a new web site and release a CD version of the album! Please show your support by purchasing the album and companion ebook, Beyond the Binding, newly listed for $0.99!

Watch this heartwarming documentary, filmed by Jamal Daood and Ray Kril's talented team, YOLANDA'S GOT TALENT!

Ebook Available at Amazon, UK, Smashwords, B&N  *soon* from iTunes, Kobo, Sony, & Diesel .

The album is available at iTunes, Amazon, CDbaby, and Spotify. 

LE SIGH. AND WOO HOO!

As you know I was a first cut finalist in the Reuts Publications short story contest, Reutsway.  I found out on the 31st that I didn't make the final cut.  Neither did my friend, Sam.  And there be the le sigh in my post's title.

 You're wondering what the woo hoo is, aren't you?  Well, some time around the 5th of this month, I will still become a published writer.  The story for charity on my post  A WORTHY CHARITY, MUSIC, AND STORIES.  COME ON.   YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO . . . will be published as an ebook with all the others!

I will give out the order links for the book when they become available.

A WORTHY CHARITY, MUSIC, AND STORIES. COME ON. YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO . . .

A blog within a blog.  That is the question I know you are asking yourself.  Ah, this blog is special.  This blog has the ability to change lives.

I had the privilege to be invited to write a piece for a wonderful charity to help the Philippines. All proceeds go to Gawad Kalinga to support the victims of Super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan).

Here is my piece.  Inspired by Requiem for a Queen - M² feat. Dina Fanai [M² consists of Michael A. Levine & Man Parrish]  Please go to the sidebar in the link above and listen to the gorgeous music as you read.

Check out the album Composers for Relief: Supporting the Philippines on both itunes and amazon.
