I just wrote the final story for Dying for a Cause, a 100 word story anthology created to raise money for Relay for Life. I auctioned off 10 spots in a Second Life auction at Third Life Books. The winners got to die in their own 100 word story, written by me. Only 7 slots were sold (at 4500Lindens each), but I still wanted ten stories, so I asked a few other people who have been a big part in Relay for Life, or some other cause, such as Podcasting for Water.
The winners are
Jordyss Paine
Tully McLeod
Chuck Heintzelman (as Wildebeast Ferengi)
I’ll want to go over the stories one more time, and have another set of eyes look at them for errors, then I’ll turn them into a PDF and a THiNK book (A Second Life format), and everyone can read 10 horrifying deaths, all for a good cause. I plan to have a release party in Second Life, and for as many as possible, I’ll have the winners read their stories aloud as they read them for the very first time.
