^[1]Today FlamesRising.com readers, I appeal to your dark side. I ask you to fan the flames, stoke the fire, and spread the world about the Evil for Crestline Auctions ^[1] going on this weekend!

Drop what you’re doing! ‘Cause, that’s RIGHT now!!!

Lilith Saint Crow ^[2], who you may recall is a fantastic writer and aficionado of great food, fabulous wine, and maniacal laughter, recently experienced a tragedy. Her son’s school burnt to the ground.

Now, members of the creative community are donating their talents for a variety of services and goods to help raise funds for these kids.

^[1]Two auctions just launched; the goods were provided by yours truly. The first is a lot of a few of my short stories and novellas (included in five FABULOUS books) PLUS a $20 gift certificate to DriveThruFiction.com ^[3]. The second, are the first three trades in the Dork Tower ^[4] series, signed by cartoonist and Munchkin ^[5] illustrator John Kovalic!

The auction ends on Monday, February 25th. If you don’t have the funds, please help spread the word. That’s still evil, though of a different sort.

Thank you!
