How a Fictional Hell on Earth Can Help a Real One

Afterhell is about a world that’s been transformed into a nightmare vision. But every so often, we get a glimpse of that nightmare in the real world. Sometimes it’s thanks to a very angry Mother Earth. (I mean, if getting handed some margarine ticked her off, imagine what all this pollution and global warming is doing …) It happened last December in Southeast Asia, and now it’s come to this half of the planet in the form of Hurricane Katrina.

All of us who aren’t stuck in the middle of the disaster are in a position to help. It’s only a question of how.

Derek Sivers, founder of the online music store CD Baby, has found one way. You can now go to the CD Baby site, buy a copy of “Afterhell: Dark Descent,” and all the profit (the money that would have come to us) will be donated to the Red Cross.

There are hundreds of other artists who have agreed to donate their profits too — so go have a look. Even if you don’t buy a copy of our disc (and why wouldn’t you?) there’s bound to be something you’d like.
