The Pirate Supply Store!
Authors Dave Eggers and Vendela Vida opened up a specialty shop that sells pirate supplies in SF. The proceeds go to support the writing labs for kids that they started (one is at http://www.826valencia.org/).
One day I’ll have my head out of my rear end enough that I’ll not only write excellent books, but co-create the hippest publishing entity ever and find the time to set up non-profits that teach children how to do and love wonderful things with words.
In the meantime, I’m going to continue preparing for that day by watching TV and eating nachos.
