About a week after the Haiti earthquake, a writer woke up one morning and decided it was time to do something. So he got together over the Internet with hundreds of writers from around the world. Together they made a book. A book packed full of stories that anyone can pick up and enjoy. A book bound together by paper and glue and massive amounts of hope. A book to raise money to help the victims of the Haiti earthquake. This is a bi-weekly podcast, so every couple of weeks, and over 12 episodes, you'll get a look at how 100 Stories for Haiti went from an idea to a bookâin just over six weeks! The podcast is hosted by Greg McQueen, the founder of 100 Stories for Haiti, and includes interviews with some of the writers and volunteers who contributed to this extraordinary book.
