Jeffrey Bentler:And today Kenn, my younger brother who takes care of me, and Robert, "the baby" of our family, will introduce themselves here on For Cory's Sake the blog.
Kenneth Bentler:Hi, I'm Kenn, William's second youngest. I have *yawn* no emotional problems or idiosyncrasies. I am even-keeled and level-headed. The word most often used to describe me is *gasp* dependable. You couldn't write an entire book about me, but you'd probably like to have someone like me around in real life. I take care of what needs to get taken care of, which at the moment is mostly Jeffrey, lol.
Robert Bentler: And I'm the youngest. I was named after the Robert Bentler, my great-grandfather who started it all. I spend most of the story being a kid. Just a normal kid. Who likes toys and sports and dreaming big about the future. I guess I leavened the serious adult business of saving a planet. (Credits go to Weston for giving me that last sentence)
For Cory's Sake is my fantasy novel, about a planet called Cory and one family's struggle to free it from slavery.
Cory's themes were influenced by a real-world issue; and I also blog about this real-world issue, with a focus on awareness and action.
I've bookended the sidebar with Awareness and Action. On the bottom, a Google News stream based on the search term "child abuse"--reminds me that the problem is real.
Featured at the top are organizations that are "doing something about it." All royalties, from sales of For Cory's Sake, are donated to programs that serve abused, neglected or exploited children.
And just for fun and fantasy, Cory's main family hosts their "social network" on this blog as well. Jeffrey usually instigates, and you can usually count on him to keep things light--his sibs don't call him Fluffrey for nothing!
Finally, if you enjoy micro-blogging and the openness of the Twitterverse, I yak in 140 characters or less about writing; "who's doing what" to help kids; whatever American sport is currently in season; and my cat--@ForCorysSake.
