Authors for the Philippines.


Hi, guys! Just a quick post to tell you all about Authors for the Philippines - an online bookish auction which was set up in order to raise money for the Red Cross Typhoon Haiyan Appeal. You can find all the details on THE WEBSITE, but I thought I'd highlight some of the items up for auction here as there is a ton of great stuff on there. You can bid on everything from signed books and manuscripts, critiques and even author visits to your school or local bookshop.

Anyone can bid on the items - the auction is open WORLDWIDE.

AUTHORS if you'd like to donate an item to the auction, click HERE for details.

The auction runs from today until Wednesday, November 20th 2013, so get bidding!

Here are some of the goodies on offer at the moment! (new items being added all the time!)
