Do it for the kids.
Reasons why O.A.R. needs to write a book for charity.
Music. It's all about the music. O.A.R.'s music has the ability to bring about change, and they're the guys to do it. I suggest they write a book and donate 100% of the proceeds to charity. By telling a story they'll be doing three things:
1. expanding the music.
2. making a name as more than just musicians
3. spreading the message that changes lives. sappy, but it does.
They had a short story on their website a while ago. Good stuff, I would have loved to see more. There's a huge market for books that's being overlooked since people have turned away.
Now's the time. Here's a link to my thoughts on how the story of a stranger would be told: http://nowinthen.wordpress.com/
Be good to each other.
