Greetings all!
In the summer of 2012, my wife and her team will be taking part in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure, a 3-day, 60-mile walk to help fund research into cures for breast cancer.
We've upped our fund-raising goals, and as part of our activities, Arisia (a prominent Boston science fiction convention in January) has agreed to allow us to run a charity raffle. For a raffle to succeed, we need prizes, and that's where you come in.
We're going to have a table in the dealer's room to sell tickets, and display prizes and lists of donors. You'd love to have thousands of geeks walk by, see your goods, and see that you care about the ladies, and hate cancer, right?
Our donors include Phil and Kaja Foglio, Steve Jackson Games, and EN World's own Mousferatu (aka author and game designer Ari Marmell). Don't you want to sit beside such illustrious company? Of course you do!
If you publish games, make jewelry, write novels, make music, own a game store, create art, or otherwise have goods or services that'd appeal to con-going geeks, we'd like to hear from you. Gift certificates, con memberships, CDs, DVDs, signed or rare genre novels, comic books, game books - if you've got it to spare, we'd be proud and happy to make you part of our prizes.
Maybe you aren't one of those people, but your buddy is, or your friend knows someone - we'd love to hear from you, so we can trade contact information or give you our pitch so you can pass it along.
Artists of EN World, I have a special thought for you - even if you don't have works you'd like to donate, we need to make posters to plaster all over the con advertising our raffle, and those posters should have nifty, eye-catching sci-fi and fantasy art on them to get people to know we're going on!
Please, folks, the cause is a good one, and with a potential audience in the thousands, we could sell a ton of tickets. You can help! Send me a Private Message, and let's make it a hit!
