For the first time, I have the honor of participating in Brenda Novak's Online Auction to Benefit Diabetes Research. My offering is
a gift basket containing the following:
Autographed copies of all five Jani Kilian mmpbs
A bound and autographed copy of "Incident on a Small Colony," the Jani novella that appeared in Baens Universe in December 2006.
Along with the books, a few things that crop up in the stories, or reflect Jani's life, specifically her Anglo-Indian French dialect-speaking background:
2-12 oz bags of Community Coffee, whole bean, medium/dark roast
2 black fleur-de-lis mugs
a $25 gift card for Penzey's Spices
A claddagh picture frame in ivory ceramic.
A small figurine of Ganesh, Remover of Obstacles
One or two more surprises.
Hoping to pull the stuff together for a photo in the next few days.
The auction runs through the month of May. Please bid if you can, for this or any other items that you like. It's for a great cause.
