UPDATES!

Good Evening!

We have some housekeeping to take care of this week.

  • If you have not yet received your item, do not fret. There are still a few that were shipped last week and a few more that will go out this week. 
  • We are cleaning up everything and entering that last stage of this endeavor. 
  • If you won a critique and have not yet heard from the agent/author/editor, please let us know and we will shoot them an email


I don't know if we can ever express the gratitude we feel for everyone involved. Every bid - even those that were not the winning bids - have made this entire cause a success. 

Living in Tuscaloosa during all of this has been more humbling than I expected, even knowing how devastating it is. People from around the world have traveled through here just to lend a hand, share a story and rediscover the goodness of humanity. I want to thank ALL of you personally for bringing a renewed sense of hope, love, life and promise to a state that did not even know it needed it.

With all that you should give yourselves a big round of applause because...

As of today we have raised over $8000 for Hackleburg, Alabama!!

AUCTION UPDATES

We hope everyone is having a wonderful first week of summer!

We are thrilled to let y'all know that we have now passed the $7000.00 mark in our efforts to raise money for Tornado Relief!

WOOHOO!! HAPPY DANCE!

We cannot believe how amazing you all are! 

Well we are not done yet! Days 26 and forward are STILL LIVE! 

Please note that we made an adjustment to the bidding cycle after Day 25. We decided to extend all auctions that are still live a few more days than 5...they are now live for 8 DAYS (from their posting date)!

So Day 26 auctions will be closing tomorrow, June 23! 
So if you were watching those auctions and thought you had lost out...no worry they are still there to grab!

Be sure to check the right sidebar for updates on closings & dates!

Thank you again and keep up the bidding!

AUCTION UPDATES!

Good Afternoon Everyone!!

We just wanted to give an update on a few things:

    1. CLOSING DATES - please note the updated closing date listing on the sidebar, everything should be back to normal on the 5 day time frame for bidding* *Due to Blogger's craziness the other week the first few days were pushed off from last weekend and have now closed. (Thank you all!) 
    2. PAYMENTS - please do not forget to put in the note section of the PayPal payment the Item that you are paying for. This is just to insure no confusion when sending the contributor the winner's information.
We are beyond pleased, ecstatic and giddy about how the auctions are going so far and wow the good stuff just keeps on coming - so don't worry if you haven't won anything so far we have more items/opportunities coming up! 

Please continue to bid, watch, contribute, donate & spread the word.
That is it for now, again we cannot even begin to convey our heartfelt thanks to everyone involved!
Without y'all this would not even be possible.

Have a fun and fantastic Friday!

Getting Organized...

Good Morning!

I have had some wonderful contacts about the upcoming auction!! So excited for all there is to come.

There are some wonderful writers/bloggers/authors contributing so far (check out the Contributions page on the blog). I know that list will continue to grow.

It sounds like some awesome items will be given but also some amazing opportunities for query & manuscript critiques!!! I know!

So continue to spread the word to all who want to contribute and those that are just itching for it all to begin.

Lots of Love,

Courtney
