Brenda Novak Auction

It's that special time of year again. May is Brenda Novak auction time when the whole romance community comes together to help raise funds for diabetes research.

There are some truly amazing lots offered by writers, publishers and companies who support this great charity.

Brenda, whose son lives with diabetes, has raised a staggering amount of money for research.

You can help. Just browse the auction lists. It doesn't have to cost much. You'll find books by your favourite authors, Jackie Braun's fabulous writing pajamas eReaders, social events, jewellery and there's even a chance to blog regularly for a year as a guest of the Chocolate Box Writers blog.

I have a family member who suffers with diabetes - I'm sure most of you will know someone who is similarly afflicted.

My donation this year is a Kindle Paperwhite stocked up with a bunch of my books - I hope you'll help spread the word and maybe bid on an item or two yourself.

Thank you.

Diabetes...

It's May, the month when the romance community and many fabulously generous companies come together to support the Brenda Novak Online Auction for Diabetes Research.

Everyone knows someone who suffers from diabetes. Maybe not the desperate Type 1 which, since last year's auction, has hit the  daughter of an acquaintance. She's six years old and each day she has to inject herself with insulin. Think about that when you check out the absolutely amazing items on offer in this year's auction.

Brenda - whose son has the disease  -  has so far raised a total of $1.6 million through the power of love. This year she's hoping to surpass the $2 million mark.

It doesn't have to cost each of us very much. There are signed books by favourite authors as well as the high cost items.

This year I've donated a Kindle Paperwhite loaded with some of my eBooks - you can bid HERE

And a group of KISS authors have put together a bundle of signed books which you can bid for
