help Vera



My publisher Vera Nazarian (her Norilana Books recently published my mosaic novel Leaving Fortusa) is distinguished in many ways. She's one of our premier fantasy authors, and one of the best friends a person could have. She's also one of the hardest working people I know. I couldn't respect her more.

But now, through no fault of her own, she's in deep financial trouble.

[livejournal.com profile] grayrose76 has opened up the new LJ community [livejournal.com profile] helpvera to see if our merry gang can assist Vera in digging herself out of the financial hole she's gotten into: the URL, if the above link doesn't work, is here. You can donate through the site, or you can bid on one (or more!) of the excellent items people have put up for auction, or you can do all of these things and put up something special for auction yourself.

Whatever you choose to do, I'm asking you please to go to [livejournal.com profile] helpvera right now.

Already way ahead of you. I couldn't contribute much, but there was no way in hell that I wasn't going to help.

"I couldn't contribute much"

Same here. However, I've been able to put up a book for auction and plan to add more when I feel up to it. (Much recovered from op but still a bit vague in places!)
