A pat on the back for me and A GIVE-AWAY!

I've been whining about the CPSIA law a lot. I've filled out petitions etc. But. Finally...

I took the time out of my enormously long to-do list to write a personal letter to Congressman Rick Larson, Senator Patty Murray and Senator Maria Cantwell. It only took me about 1/2 an hour.

This is the first time I've ever bothered to write my own letter, as opposed to using a pre-written letter some other activist wrote. I'm proud. Pat on the back for me.

Now. Somebody out there: do the same.

Look, I've got a give-away to encourage you to do just that.

If you send a letter to all three of your representatives (your house member and your two senators), even if it's just a form letter, and then comment about it here, you'll be eligible to receive a free handmade flip-out book made by me. I'll draw eligible names from a hat if there's more than one person who does it. And I'll even let you tell me what colors you want (I've got a bunch in stock). Here's a photo of one:


And here's a photo of a full one:


Also if you make cool handmade stuff I dare you to do a similar give-away.

All the info you need to write the letters can be found via the link with the cute teddy bear to the right.

There. Now...

Go to.
