Today marks the official start of Brenda Novak’s 4th Annual On-line Auction for Diabetes Research. This is a truly amazing event. I have no idea how Brenda finds the time to do this and still write great books, but she does. And we all win.

For those who love Brava books (my imprint), there are two baskets of books donated by the Brava authors and up for auction. Each basket contains 22 books. That’s about $300 worth of books each. Go here and here to bid.

My editor, Kate Duffy, has some amazing donations listed, including ones where she guarantees she will review a proposal within 24 hours. Twenty-Four hours. She’s my editor and I don’t get a response within 24 hours. Don’t really expect one either since she is so busy, but you can get that from her. Check out her listings.

I’m giving away two additional items: a never used Ferragamo purse that I got at a private function in Honolulu (check it out here) and a beach basket filled with all my books…including those that are not available in bookstores yet (check here).

There are books and goodies and critiques and trips and a whole bunch of other stuff. This is a great cause and a great opportunity. Don’t miss out. Go bid and bid often.

UPDATE: Darlene is right! Do you love mysteries? You can also win a copy of RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW in an amazing basket donated by Poe’s Deadly Daughters (go here to check it out). Frankly, this basket is soooo good that I’m seriously thinking about bidding on it even though my book is in it.
