Auction!!!



You know, bad stuff happens to everyone now and then. I firmly believe it's what you do when bad stuff hits that defines you.

Well, my friend's brother in law is just a kid--in his 20's--and he's been hit hard over and over again by an insidious form of cancer that gets back up every time Matt slaps it down.

But you know what?? MATT DOESN'T QUIT. And because of that, he's going to win.

But here's the deal....Matt's family has put together an awesome basket of amazing books, autographed by the authors and they're auctioning it off to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

Did I mention that Matt comes by his guts naturally? His family is right there with him, fighting in the trenches.

So here's a link. Go see my friend's page--check out the great books signed by some really terrific authors--then go make a bid. In this auction....everybody wins.

And even if you don't make a bid...take a second to say a prayer for Matt... Even fighters need all the help they can get.............

    recently another author raised quite a bit of money for Leukemia and Lymphoma society by raffling herself off for one year of mentoring (and yes, I bought tickets and no, I did not win!)

    Matt sounds awesome, as does his family. I'll keep him in my thoughts and prayers.
