Danielle and Matthew Drake are Indie Authors with a cause – helping cheer up kids with cancer.  They’ve started Kourageous Kids Storybooks – short stories written especially for young cancer patients.

Each story will be unique, and will feature the child as the hero.  This service is free to the families, and the Drakes are hoping to get their word out so more families may find them. After learning a little about the patient, the Drakes will craft the short story based on the child’s tastes. The finished product will be delivered to the patient.  Eventually, the Drakes are hoping to compile the stories into an anthology for publication. Proceeds from the sales will be donated to Stand Up to Cancer and the National Children’s Cancer Society.

You can learn more about Kourageous Kids Storybooks on their website, or on their Facebook page.[subscribe2]

After a spirited chase, we are pleased to announce that author David Antrobus has been safely apprehended and will now serve a long term of community service writing blog posts and emptying out the hazardous material bins here at Indies Unlimited.

He says that what sets his style apart is his flagrant disregard for any sense of decorum or discipline whatsoever. This means he’ll be a good fit here at IU. David, welcome to the jungle, and remember – every Tuesday it’s all the gruel you can eat at the IU  employee cafeteria.

You can also follow David’s literary exploits at his own blog, but let’s face it – he won’t have time to get into much mischief over there anymore.

David’s book, Dissolute Kinship: A 9/11 Road Trip  recounts a solo car journey he took from the West Coast of Canada to New York City just over ten years ago.
