Contributors needed for an important book on abuse and self esteem issues... Please read

Hello Everyone,

October is National Domestic Violence Month for those of you that aren't aware. Gentle Storm Publishing is working on an anthology of poems, words of inspiration/encouragement, and advice for survivors of abuse. Be it physical, mental, emotional, drug, alcohol, you get the picture. We are pushing to have the book Invisible Memories released in time for National Child Abuse Prevention Month in April 2009.

If your company deals with the needs of abuse survivors and getting them help, and you'd like to sponsor a page in the book to advertize your services, please send an email to sponsors@gentlestorms.com. In your email please put in the subject line Invisible Sponsor. Tell us a little about your company and provide a website link.

If you are a business or individual that is just interested in supporting this project, please send an email to the address above for further details.

Anyone affiliated with child abuse or domestic violence organizations, please send us a message. We want to provide as many helpful resources as possible in this book to help those that want/need the help.

Gentle Storm Publishing would like to congratulate the following writers on being selected for the GSP Abuse/Self Esteem Anthology Invisible Memories:

J.L. Dillard www.myspace.com/jldillard1
Bharati Ishaya www.myspace.com/bharatiishaya
A. Kai www.myspace.com/discoverkai
Kiexiza 'Mis Tiger' Rodriguez www.myspace.com/mistiger
Leah Ruddick www.myspace.com/leopardspottedlady
Danny Urato www.myspace.com/wuzisname

More names to be added soon.
These writers all submitted original, powerful, thought provoking works that add to the presence we want Invisible Memories to put forth. They wrote about painful topics such as cutting, sexual abuse of very young children, suicide, and domestic violence.
If you think you have something to add to this powerful, growing anthology, please read the message below. There are still contributor slots available.
If you are a writer and interested in submitting to the anthology, please send your poem or short short story to submissions@gentlestorms.com

We would appreciate any reposts of this message to your blogs or anywhere people that might be interesting will see it.

Thank you,
Gentle Storm

SPAM IS SO NOT COOL!

Please do not greet everyone on the site with large images and announcements of your book or business. Yes, you want to tell the world, but learn the fine art of subtlety. A simple welcome and signature/link is fine. Let them ask you for more.
We have lost numerous members because of the amount of 'friend' mail they instantly receive. This Hurts Everyone.
Spam is unsolicited advertising, whether it is posted as comments on other members' pages or is emailed for marketing purposes.

Please be considerate. Post your advertisement in the proper Articles/Forum or Group. There are free classifieds on the Pages tab. You can post your information on your profile and even update your blog as often as you like.

We are not into censorship, so please don't make us ask you to leave. Be kind and unselfish - don't spam.
SPAMMING IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED
