Weekly Update – November 6, 2018

Election Day! Hope everyone has already voted or is taking care of it later.

Last week I wrote at length about the situation over at Arisia regarding rape allegations against the board president. In addition to ousting him, there is a major leadership shakeup happening, so it seems like the effort to rectify this issue is serious and ongoing. You can stay up to date by following the event’s Facebook page.

In light of this situation I decided that when I vend at the event, I will sell all full-length novels for $15, with $5 from every sale going to the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network (RAINN) and the Boston Area Rape Crisis Center (BARCC).

I’m taking that one step further. Starting last week, all print editions of Well-Behaved Women – Awakening sold through this website will sell for $15 and $5 from every sale will be donated to RAINN and BARCC. Click on the Buy Now tab to get your copy.
