Child Abuse Prevention Month

April has been designated as Child Abuse Prevention Month.   From now until the end of April, I will be donating 10% of my proceeds from the "The Winter Calf" to child abuse nonprofits. 

Without giving away too many spoilers, child abuse is a central motif in the "The Winter Calf".   Too many children every year suffer needlessly from neglect, sexual abuse, physical abuse, or all three.  This problem is rife throughout our nation - and can only be solved by the continued persistence and perseverance of friends, neighbors, educators, coaches, family members, and anyone else that might cross paths with an abused child.  If you see a child who may be in need, please don't stand by idly or take a blind eye.  Do something.
