To those of you who have already given generously to Wordstock through Willamette Week’s GiveGuide!, thank you. Thankyouthankyouthankyou.

For everyone else: It’s go time. Time to donate and help us meet our year-end GiveGuide! goal of $5,000. We’re making it a bit more exciting to see how many people we can get to donate in the next 72 hours:

Give any amount to Wordstock between now and midnight Sunday (December 21st) and you’ll be entered into a raffle for 2 tickets to Wordstock’s opening night event in October, and a personalized, signed first edition by one of our 2010 festival authors. This is above and beyond the other incentives you’re due!

Of course, you donate to Wordstock because you believe that books and stories really are the best things on earth, and you want everyone to read and write, and talk about reading and writing, and Wordstock creates a magical week each fall when this happens. But a few incentives are nice, right?
