Today's Subjects: ----------------- dodgy KaTe cover as fundraising prize [Karen Hester Subject: dodgy KaTe cover as fundraising prize This is cute, there's a fundraiser for a science fiction author with cancer (Jay Lake - http://www.youcaring.com/medical-fundraiser/Sequence-a-Science-Fiction-Writer/38705), and different prizes get 'unlocked' as more donations come in. This includes - "$9000 -- Hugo-award winner, writer for Doctor Who and novelist Paul Cornell will try to sing Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights" - - Goal unlocked!" An excellent choice of song for making a fool of oneself. I also like "$10,000 -- Best-selling author Cherie Priest will present a steampunk/goth fashion show for pets with the able assistance of her cat Spain and her dog Greyson. GOAL UNLOCKED!"

I'm sad to hear he has cancer.
