Photos in Nepal for Charity – Let’s do it!

Firstly, I will say straight away that I’m paying my own way on this Nepalese adventure with Patrick Rothfuss, and I won’t use any of the charity’s money. 100% of the money raised goes to the Heifer International!

This year, the goal is $500,000. Last year, it hit $310,000, but this year we can blast through that! Your $20 or $120 is quickly multiplied thanks to sweet sweet social media! 🙂 Donate a Flock o’ Chickens at http://goo.gl/8RXm0

Now, who is this enigmatic Patrick Rothfuss? I’ve told many of you that upon reading his book “The Name of The Wind” you automatically level up as my friend. Some of you are level 1, others are level 2. Some are even level 3. (But seriously, every week I get dozens of emails from people profusely thanking me for introducing them to that book. Rothfuss is teaching us all…)

And insofar as Rothfuss is teaching us all, he is the man behind the brilliant Worldbuilders, which is a really fun way to raise money for Heifer International. By donating, you also have the chance to win incredible prizes, especially if you are a geek. And, if you’re not a geek, I hope you have a few geeks in your life. We’re everywhere now, since, finally, geeks rule much of the world. Anyway, see all the incredible prizes and more on blog’o’Rothfuss at http://blog.patrickrothfuss.com/2012/11/worldbuilders-2012/

There is a bonus charity auction as well, full of all kinds of geeky-goodness! http://tinyurl.com/aw85xbh

So, when I’m in Nepal with Patrick, we’ll be taking all kinds of photos of the families you’ve affected so you can see what your money has done. I’ll do hangouts and answer questions and take special requests! Want to see me milk a yak?

Going to Visit Hobbiton

I’m on my way to visit the real Hobbiton! I went there many years ago, but now it’s been upgraded — this is exciting… to see everything and visit the actual
