Happy To Help

Yesterday I was asked by a representative of a local business if I would kindly donate a copy of Trouble At Toff Towers as a raffle prize; there is going to be a fundraising event in aid of the charity, Solidarity, in Kouklia village square on Saturday night (28th September). Local businesses and residents are pulling together to help people in crisis. Here’s the link to the charity website:

I’m sure you will agree it’s a very worthy cause but unfortunately there is no physical copy of Trouble At Toff Towers for me to donate so I started thinking about what I might do to help these wonderful, warm hearted and welcoming people who make my life here in Cyprus so happy.

I’m going to donate some wine to be raffled and I’m also going to include some dried foodstuffs and baby formula/nappies etc. in my weekly shop and hand them in to be distributed; because of the ongoing financial crisis people are in need of these very basics items.

I’m sure my help will be greatly appreciated but it’s not much in the grand scheme of things. So, I have also decided to donate a month’s royalties from Trouble At Toff Towers to the cause. And that’s where you come in. I know that some of you have already downloaded a copy of the book but if you have been thinking about it and haven’t yet managed to get around to it there has never been a better time. If you have already downloaded a copy or don’t have an electronic reading device you can still help by simply sharing or retweeting the link to this post in order to spread the word. If you’ve read it and you liked it tell a friend!

I’m an indie author so obviously my book isn’t selling millions but it has achieved seventeen five star reviews so far and it only costs £1.02 so it won’t break the bank. Here’s the blurb:

My small donation of a raffle prize and a few basic provisions will be a small drop in the ocean but, together, we could make much more of a difference. Thank you.
