You see, I'm one of those women who doesn't ask for a favor without giving something of value in return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My next book, &lt;b&gt;The Kindness Experiment&lt;/b&gt;, will chronicle my activities for the past 13 years and how my experiments turned out. &amp;nbsp;I was astonished by some of the reactions and responses. You may be astonished, too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The point of writing this book is not to embarrass or shame anyone, but to encourage &lt;i&gt;some people &lt;/i&gt;to open their minds and hearts more than they do now. If I disturb some readers out of their complacency, then as a writer I will have achieved my objective.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8780862121621252665-5685806883863574230?l=thekindnessexperiment.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.andreareynolds.com' title='What the cover will look like'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thekindnessexperiment.blogspot.com/feeds/5685806883863574230/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8780862121621252665&amp;postID=5685806883863574230' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8780862121621252665/posts/default/5685806883863574230'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8780862121621252665/posts/default/5685806883863574230'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thekindnessexperiment.blogspot.com/2011/03/what-cover-will-look-like.html' title='What the cover will look like'/><author><name>Handy Ande</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6grAysmc95Q/SjUfqGxrmNI/AAAAAAAAAHI/KuUzjoA9Q5s/S220/Photo+348.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-GfIzUhF3Aqc/TXETBnG-TzI/AAAAAAAAAN0/TFgUI65RGVQ/s72-c/bookcover.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
