Originally there was supposed to be only one, but the outpouring of love for the work these dedicated people at Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge do for these incredible animals brought in many many great stories. Thus we ended up with two volumes...one adult romance (pg rates) and one YA collection. Every cent of profit goes to TCWR. Neither the sponsoring chapter (Diamond State Romance Authors) nor the contributing authors receive any financial compensation. As someone with a story in Vol.1, I'm thrilled for TCWR. It's a place close to my heart. <br /><br />Thank you again!Cynthia D'Albahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15851986671527903732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6507548911400837437.post-24748735366786191032012-10-10T15:31:58.461-06:002012-10-10T15:31:58.461-06:00Darlin' Marty/ Molly!

This has been an amazing and rewarding experience beyond measure, and I'm so fortunate to be a part of it!<br /><br />LA, to answer your questions, I know that hard copy authors have donated portions of their proceeds to charities, and it stands to reason you can do the same with indie pubbing. You can also limit the time frame, I'm sure.<br /><br />ENTANGLED will stay on sale for the foreseeable future, but eventually the authors will want to use their stories on their websites and/or elsewhere. At that point, ENTANGLED will no longer be for sale.<br /><br />Another hint, hint, gentle readers. If you don't have your copy of ENTANGLED, get it while you still can! :)<br /><br />Hugs to you all!<br /><br />Nancy<br /><br />Nancy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575462504162733088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6507548911400837437.post-25378280266221475782012-10-10T12:02:40.374-06:002012-10-10T12:02:40.374-06:00LA, Hi and thanks for spotlighting Entangled and t...LA, Hi and thanks for spotlighting Entangled and the Wild at Heart anthologies.

We're all believers in the cause to wipe out breast cancer.<br /><br />I'm in another anthology where all proceeds go to the charity as well. Some groups cover the cost of cover art and editing first if those aren't donated and then give the proceeding profits to the charity. <br /><br />Initially, we set our time frame for one year. Everyone was so happy with the results of Entangled, we've decided to extend our time frame for another year. Then we can reevaluate and maybe even do a second anthology.Misty Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01234289226913401133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6507548911400837437.post-86438265648187340012012-10-10T10:31:57.744-06:002012-10-10T10:31:57.744-06:00A couple of questions.
