To paraphrase our beloved Captain Mike:
Greetings, Saints,Scribes and Scribblers!
Story contributions for MMB3 (Mysterious & Miraculous Book III) are arriving, and fluttering into our email boxes. We had received some at the beginning of the year as well and we're excited to be adding new content from some scribes and contributors that are new to the Legacy Archives family.
I'd let you know who they are, but that'd kinda spoil the surprise. However, to the new folks, I bid you welcome and many thanks for your contributions to MMB3!
In event everyone isn't in the know, let me reiterate that any of us can contribute further manuscripts for the consecutive books. So, if you've already had one of your stories published in a previous book in the M&M series, you can still turn in new stories for MMB3.
Now, let me bring you up to date with where we are regarding contributions and correspondence from the not-for-profs we're lending a hand to.

Money distribution and correspondence
To keep this fast and simple, I've put together a tiny slideshow for you. The documents show the monies distributed as well as the response from the recipients.
Now, I'd like to update you with some very cool fundraising projects!
Handmade greeting cards Via Maria Jordan

Our own, multi-talented, Maria Jordan has been hard at work designing hand-made cards. This is something she enjoys just for the fun of it, but also because it's good therapy.
A few months ago, Maria expanded her personal line of cards to incorporate a new line that helps promote the work of the Legacy Archives Foundation.
I'll give you a short list here of the wonderful benefits of investing in and using these cards.
See? Using these cards is a win-win-win investment and we're very thankful for her generous efforts and gift!
You can view the cards via the Creative Cards section of her website, marcoujor's musings and contact her there or via email with questions or order requests.
The pricing on the cards is:
1 Card - $5
Set of 5 Cards - $15
Once again, bravo zulu to Captain Mike who designed the fantastic logo for both the Legacy Archives Foundation as well as the header for this blog, Hear Ye! Hear Ye!
Before I move on, I'm compelled to mention that the photo of Maria I used above also includes one of her very best friends, Aunt Baby.
Aunt Baby graduated to a pain-free higher plane not long ago. She'd been a much-loved member of the Jordan family for many years. As Mar's devoted therapist, who worked for hugs and pets, Aunt Baby was also the manager of their neighborhood's Branch Office, when out for strolls with the family.
Here, I'll paraphrase one of my favorite quotes that appeared in my dad's memorial book when we were celebrating his life as well ...
Semper Fi, Aunt Baby ... Take the point and lead us home.

- You'll be spreading the word to help a small locally owned and operated business.
- You'll be employing yet another avenue of spreading the word about the LAF and it's mission.
- If you're a Legacy Scribe or Contributor, you'll be drawing attention to not only the LAF, Maria Jordan's work, but your own work (and/or company) too.
- Maria is donating the profits earned from the sales of these cards back to the not-for-prof recipients of the LAF.

Recipe for Bachelor's Contest via Life Talks - I Write!

Vicki Warner became a Legacy Scribe during the production of MMB1 and also assisted with the production process.
She's continued to be a wonderful asset lending a hand with publicity, which is crucially important, often shouting it out for the Legacy Archives Foundation on her own website, Life Talks - I Write.
A few months ago she cranked things up a notch and started collections for her second book, a cookbook, featuring simple recipes for bachelors and made a contest of it.
The contest is still going on, and ultimately the recipes will be gathered and published with proceeds from it going to the K9s for Warriors Program and Rescue.
So, if you know anyone you can yank into the kitchen to whip up a simple recipe for bachelors, please do! Take notes and pics while you've got them cornered and email the whole thing to Vicki or contact her via the Contact Me page on Life Talks- I Write!
The contest rules are pretty simple. (Click HERE to view them.)
If you're a Legacy Scribe or Contributor, you can certainly enter a recipe, but you aren't eligible for a prize, other than being featured in the cookbook, which is very cool and makes for some excellent publicity. However, just because the Legacy Scribes and Contributors can't enter a recipe and win a prize, your spouses, kids, parents, grandparents, neighbors and their local farmer's in the nearby dell can!
So, please put the word out and encourage your kith and kin to get tuh cookin'!
