Books for Boobs -- Fight breast cancer with Jim and Shannon!
« on: April 22, 2010, 04:04:29 AM »
Hey, everyone!

I've started a project called Books for Boobs, which has the dual goals of raising money to fight breast cancer and supporting awesome authors.  I'm auctioning off a number of autographed books, most of them including photos of the authors holding an Avon teddy bear.  Proceeds go to the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer.

Genres range from sci-fi and fantasy to romance to humor, so there's a good chance you'll see an author you like or discover someone new you'll love!  Jim donated a signed copy of Changes and Shannon generously contributed five of her novels.  Together, Jim and I conspired to bring you a 13"x17" poster of the map of Alera, signed by both of us!  (I'm the map's illustrator, for those unaware.)

Browse the full list and bid here!

Laura Bennett, Didn't I Feed You Yesterday?

Jim Butcher and Priscilla Spencer, Codex Alera Map poster (13"x19") -- currently the only one of its kind!
