I will be using the promotion of ‘Who Stole Grandma?’ to raise funds for Parkinson’s UK.
WSG is the story of mine and Mom’s time together after we learned that she had Parkinson’s Diseases. Although the book is not about Parkinson’s, the time that we shared, and all the fun we fitted in between the challenges and sadness, stemmed from Mom becoming ill.
Now my sister, Aly, who is a principal character in WSG?, has been diagnosed with PD, so my intention to run this fundraiser has been greatly magnified.
Up to the end of July I will donate all of the earnings from paperback sales through Amazon (49p per book) and 50% of earnings from e.books (around £1.50 per book) as well as collecting donations for signed copies where it is possible to meet people.
I am ordering a batch of books to be the signed copies that people have requested and the plan is to bring the books to you, have a coffee and a catch up and collect donations. At the moment there are several Birmingham & Black Country get togethers in the planning, including a Book Launch Evening at a wonderful local bookshop. There are also, joyfully, 5 Delivery Tours beyond the Midlands in the offing:
- The M1 Tour (heading towards North Yorkshire)
- The M6 Tour (heading for the Scottish border via The Wirral)
- The M5 Tour (heading towards Somerset & Devon)
- The M40 Tour (towards London-ish)
- The Languedoc Tour (via Kent, Normandy & the Haut Vienne)
- If you’d like to be included in one of these WSG Delivery Tours, PM me your address and we’ll sort out money when I see you.
And now I get to say: ‘Who Stole Grandma?’ is available worldwide, right now, as a turny page book AND can be pre-ordered as an e.book to pop open on Sunday.
I would be hugely grateful for any support you can give me in letting friends know about WSG and my fundraising. Thank you in advance.
