Yes – it’s all kicking off again!! Pudsey is Back in Town!

Paddy Heron has just opened up the Auction for this year’s Children in Read charity auction. If you donated last year, then we would love you to express your generosity again!  If this is all new to you, then read on.

Children in Read is a charity auction of signed books by both Authors and Illustrators. This is the 7th year of the auction and last year we raised over £21,000.

Its open to both mainstream published authors and Indie authors! If you have a physical book to donate, that’s fine! ALL genres welcome!

A reminder:

1. Follow Paddy on Twitter at @Childreninread
2. Send him a Direct Message telling him you want to donate and give him:

a. The Title

b. The Amazon Link so he can use it for your Bio, the book blurb, the Cover and Headshot

c. Your Bio, Blurb and Headshot if not on your Amazon Page.

Include your website and social media links in your Bio.

Or:

Email him at childreninread@yahoo.com with the above info, although Paddy does seem to prefer Twitter.

So many author friends were very generous last year, and I’ll be doing regular Promo posts as last year by way of a thankyou..

Every author who donates will have their twitter added to https://twitter.com/i/lists/1417006707377643520/members so you can see everyone else who has committed to donate.

They will also be invited to join the Facebook Group I use for promoting the event at https://www.facebook.com/groups/565678247774587  Like last year I hope to advertise the event and your contribution through a series of collages.

Cheers and thanks!!

John
