DONUT SEEDS
FAVE LINKEY-POO RIGHT THIS SECOND: So, as it turns out, donuts can solve the energy crisis. No, really. They can.
As part of the publicity for DONUT DAYS, Rob and I are sending out “donut seeds” (read: Cheerios) with the advance reader copies (also known as ARCs) of the book. We wanted to give away something that was cheap and easy to make, yet would have a punch — and these were perfect. We bought a box of cereal, some baggies from Michael’s, and Rob made labels. The picture to the left is of the cute donut tree he designed as well, to go on the labels, which say: “Blooms August 6, 2009.” That’s the release date for the book.
I gotta say, I love it!
If you’re hankering for some donut seeds, let me know and I can see about sending you some!

A neighbour once told me “Any idiot can raise petunias”. She has, since witnessing my own attempt, changed her mind. I’d like to make a go of donuts. Especially if the seeds come with an ARC.
