First Book Auction

From today until Friday, October 17th at MIDNIGHT, you can bid to win a marked-up copy of I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone, with notes throughout the book, done by the author (Stephanie Kuehnert) herself! And all of the proceeds go to the charity First Book. Read the details below if you want to participate in the auction.

Click here for my review of IWBYJR.

A few details about the auctions:

** HOW TO BID: Leave a comment on this post with the amount you want to bid for. The Leave a Mark page on First Book is ONLY for the winner...if you bid the most, you donate through that site that amount and Lauren or I will mail you the book!

**The first person who bids has to START at five dollars, so each book will sell for at least that much. If you want to bid above that, it has to go up in fifty cent increments, so people aren't going up by a penny or a dime.

Ex. Starts at five dollars, will go to five fifty, will go to six dollars, etc.

**We will give a loose finishing date for each book being auctioned, but it might change, so just keep checking the blog and make sure when it has ended or not. This will help us and you in the long run!

**If you are an author and want to mark up your book, please get in touch. We'd love to have you! If you don't have time or don't like to mark up books, feel free to get in touch about sending us any promo items to include with the books when people bid on them.

** ALL PROCEEDS will go to First Book, so keep that in mind!!
They have a page set up for us as well, where you will donate your money if you are the highest bidder. You can also feel free to donate aside from the auction, if you'd just like to help out First Book. The site is here: Leave a Mark site!

** If you're the winner, we'll send you more information. But make sure to check back to see who wins, or leave a way for us to contact you!

So, get bidding! Let me know in the comments or via email if you have any questions.

  2. The only reason I'm not going to bid this time is because I just recently got this book... I'm here watching though :D Can't wait to see what's next and who walks away the winner!
