Recap: I apparently don’t have enough to do in my life so I’m doing NaNo this year.

When I did this 3 years ago, I offered to kill people off creatively.Â? I did this by creating a fictitious website called DaHorror.Com and had it be something like News of the Weird.Â? This year, I’m making a similar offer but with a twist.

The offer: For a donation to your local food bank/pantry (money or food — I don’t really care which), I will creatively kill you off in my NaNo piece.

The Rules
1.) You need to email me after you make your donation and specify which food bank/pantry got the goods.Â? If you donate food, please make it something that people actually eat as these organizations provide groceries for families.Â? I know people will eat creamed corn if desperate but if mac n’ cheese is on sale for 10/$10, please donate that instead.Â? You also don’t need to tell me how much got donated — this is on the honor system.

2.) Be creative but also be somewhat reasonable.Â? I’m open to stuff like that which could happen in the Lemony Snicket books but not really the slasher horror film genre, if you get my drift.Â? Also, no cannibalism, no being roasted over a spit, or anything like that.Â? (Ahem… PISCO!!!!)

3.) I have final veto power over how you’re killed off.

4.) If you’re someone who I interact with in person on a daily basis (i.e. co-worker/parishioner/community member), you don’t get to read the final product.

Let the killing spree begin!
