We interrupt this All About Alphas discussion to say . . .

. . .that as it's May 1st, today's the day that bidding starts in Brenda Novak's On-Line Auction to Benefit Diabetes Research.

The 5th Annual On-line Auction for Diabetes Research will open today and run through the month. They hope to make this auction the biggest and the best ever. Last year, they raised $252,300. They hope to break $300,000 in 2009.


I've been in touch with a lovely lady called Olga (Olga if you're reading this - then Hi!) And I've been delighted to offer a lot for this auction and hopefully raise lots of bids to contribute to the final total.


My contribution is a Writers' and Readers' Basket' and you can find the details here.

The winner of this bid will receive the Writers' and Readers' Basket with these autographed books:


12 POINT GUIDE TO WRITING ROMANCE

THE STRAIGHTFORWARD GUIDE TO WRITING ROMANTIC FICTION
THE ALCOLAR FAMILY TRILOGY in one volume (Mills & Boon By Request Reprint)CORDERO'S FORCED BRIDE (Harlequin Presents February 2009)

BEDDED BY THE GREEK BILLIONAIRE (Harlequin Presents November 2008)

THE DUKE'S SECRET WIFE (Mills and Boon 100th birthday Special Novella)

SPANISH BILLIONAIRE, INNOCENT WIFE (Harlequin Presents June 2008)
All books are packed into one of my Kate Walker book bags.

Since I first mentioned this, many more lots have been added and there are some really wonderful items and treats to bid for. And it's all in such a wonderful cause.
So you'll want to take a little time to browse, see what's on offer and decide what you want to bid for - won't you?

Brenda Novak 's On-line Auction for Diabetes Research website can be found here. Go and see what's on offer and join in - it's for a great cause.


Oh and PS - about the 12 Point Guide to Writing Romance - If you don't make the winning bid in the auction, then it looks like there is going to be a USA edition of this book - and maybe - hopefully - a Kindle edition on sale on Amazon too. More details when i know them myself.

So watch this space.
