My Message to Dub-Ya
by bchrisdesignsI believe in karma.
This is my message to our departing president. It is everything I want to say to his face. It took me a long time to come up with the right words to say because, every time I began to type, my fingers filled with rage and I was so overwhelmed that I could not put my thoughts together. I had 200 words to say what I needed to say; and, I used all 200 words! I did this for Farewell43.com’s project, which bids farewell to our 43rd president (and, good riddance, too). I just received an e-mail informing me that my message to the pres. has been approved for the web. Now, I can only hope it is powerful enough to make the cut and be published in the print anthology of the same name, which will be delivered to the pres. himself. For more information on how you can add your message and let the president (and the world) know exactly what you think of him, check out this brief guide: http://hubpages.com/hub/How-To-Let-Dub-Ya-Know-What-You-Really-Think-of-Him It is non-partisan, and non-biased. So, whether you love him or hate him or are American or not, you too can have a say! You can check out my published message here: / http://www.farewell43.com/2008/07/13/i-believe/ / CREATION INFORMATION Medium: Writing – Prose, Non-Fiction. Tools: Microsoft Word, and My Brain/Imagination Topic: Politics, Opinion/Editorial.

Farewell43.com and My Message to the Pres.

I just received news that my submission to the Farewell 43 Project was accepted! Now, all I can hope for is that it will not only be published on the web, but in the book itself! I posted my 200-word message on Red Bubble, which you can see by clicking here. You can also see it online here. And, also on my blog here. (I believe in the power of three!) It took me a long time to write it and say what I needed to say. My fingers are still weak and my arms are still shaking because of how angry I was when I typed it. It was great therapy! I think this is a wonderful project and that everyone should participate! It does not matter whether you love him or hate him or are American or not…there is a place for everyone to leave a message! Check out my brief tutorial here, for more information. They are also accepting image submissions as well!
