Auction à la Literatos

Super fantastic bakesale to help two super fantastic writers

|| Help Us Help Them ||

A bunch of us writers, artists, debaters, raconteurs, provocateurs, designers, cooks, volunteers, visionaries, and all around creative types are collaborating to help two Salon literatos: Writer, editor, King Kaufman  -- who is recovering from Guillain-Barré syndrome and writer Cary Tennis  – who is recovering from cancer surgery.

Yes, it does in fact involve baked goods, but also first edition books, art, and little bits to adorn your neck. Fabulous creations will be auctioned off and the proceeds will help King and Cary.

The eBay auction is set to start Tuesday, Feb. 9th.

 Go.Bid.Now.
