Calling all aspiring/Indie authors! I have another opportunity for aspiring authors to donate to St. Baldrick's children's cancer research foundation! My amazing literary agent, Andrea Hurst, and her junior agent, Katie Reed, have both volunteered their time to give a FREE consult or query letter edit (see below for details) to the highest bidding authors! All you have to do to bid is send me an e-mail to davidestesbooks(at)gmail(dot)com with the amount of your bid. The two winners will be able to make their donation securely via my St. Baldrick's donation page, and then I'll put them in touch with my literary agency to receive their free consult or query letter edit. So you get a great once-in-a-lifetime service AND the satisfaction of donating to an AWESOME cause :)

PRIZES
Consult: a phone call with my literary agent, where you can ask any questions you want about your specific project, how to pitch it, or the publishing industry in general. This is a rare opportunity to get face time with an experienced literary agent!

Query Letter edit: a detailed edit of one of your query letters by an agent. Worth it's weight in gold when authors are querying projects!

Scott Boyer (rscottboyer) I just noticed this thread and notice it's a bit old. St Baldrick's sounds like a good cause that people should donate to regardless of the prize giveaway.

PS - might help to hyperlink the 'my St. Baldrick's donation page' in your initial comment.

Thanks! It is a great cause, but yes, the event is over for this year. Maybe next year I'll do it again!
