Thank you ALL for the fantastic start to this auction for Laurie and Deb!

We've been asked a few times now about donating directly, rather than going through the auction. Here's how to do it:

Make your donation to WomanEarthandSpirit AT gmail DOT com EstrogenerationInc AT gmail DOT com via Paypal and PLEASE mark it "For Deb Mensinger" (or "For Deb's Liver" or any similar identifier) in the message box. Please send the money via Paypal by means of a bank transfer, eCheck, or PayPal balance, because then there are no processing fees and no limits. We strongly discourage people from paying via Paypal by credit card.

Woman, Earth & Spirit is a nonprofit organization that works to expand possibilities for women and lesbians, and also sponsors Outland, Maize: A Lesbian Country Magazine, and the New Mexico Women's Guest House, Retreat & Healing Center. They have kindly agreed to umbrella the donations to help us avoid difficulties in handling the monies. Since they are a 501c3 nonprofit corporation organization, your donations will be tax deductible as well. Woman, Earth & Spirit will transfer the money to Laurie and Deb after the auction is closed and a majority of donations have been collected.

Another important way to help out Laurie & Deb is by buying Laurie's wonderful books, and telling your friends about them, and maybe even blogging reviews of them! Water Logic seems to be the one book still in print, and you can order it from your local bookstore or directly from Small Beer Press. Alas, the first two books of the Elemental Logic series, Fire Logic and Earth Logic, seem to be out of print.

ETA: FIRE LOGIC does seem to be available as an eBook in several platforms, including Kindle - check here: http://us.macmillan.com/firelogic

EARTH LOGIC is also available as an eBook on Kindle etc. - Macmillan just forgot the link. You can find it on Amazon.com.

SBP is also offering an eBook edition of WATER LOGIC.

You can, in fact, support Laurie's work by buying editions of all 3 books - but only if you're an eBook reader. And Laurie gets royalties from the eBook sales!
