Note to potential Santas

Toys R Us is matching donations to Toys For Tots done at its stores. If anyone was thinking of doing it, it's a way to donate twice as many toys.

My husband (boyfriend at the time) got me started on the annual T4T donation. He was working at Woolworth's, and with the help of a sale and his employee discount, he bought a brand new kid's bike. He goes up to the Marine on duty with this herfty box in his arms and asks "Can you arrange things so that this will fit in the barrel?"

Marine, eyebrow raised: "What is it?"

Husband-to-be: "It's a bike."

That was the only time I've ever seen a Marine cry. It was really something. Give it a try.

Snippet/blurb

I debated whether or not I should post this, but I'm curious about the impression it makes. Since the "Demon Project" is now approaching novel length this would be a tiny fraction of the whole work, so I think it's Ok.

If I send it to DDP, I'm thinking of using this as the "short blurb" they ask for. Alternately/in addition, it could be an intro.

Anyone have comments?


Once, Mankind shared the world with other beings-the winged seraphim, servants of the Light and protectors of life, and the scaled demons, the Deeper Ones who considered all warm-bloods their rightful prey.
Once, a seraph decided to try to win the demons over to the Light.
A she-demon decided to play with her food.
And Malak was born.

Follow the story of the first demon/seraph hybrid through the eyes of mortals, seraphim and Malak himself, as The Demonspawn Chronicles unfold.
