Shoshana Edwards, author and quilter, needs your help...

Shoshana Edwards, the author of the Harper's Landing series (Easy as Pie, Madness of Trees, Death Lives in the Water, Deathly Waters, The Secrets of Water), as well as a veteran of the Society for Creative Anachronism and a superlative quilter, is struggling at the moment. She has many medical bills and a business deal that would have enabled her to sell books has fallen through, leaving her with a big pile of science fiction & fantasy books taking up a great deal of space. Unfortunately, doctors don't take books for payment....

Therefore Shoshana -- who is one of the nicest, sweetest, most generous people you'd ever want to meet -- is asking for help, not just to help pay the bills, but also to clear out all these dang books. When you make your donation, if you take a screenshot of it and send it to shoshana at whysper dot net, along with your mailing address, you may find yourself with a book!

Among the authors whose works Shoshana has laying around:

In addition, Shoshana takes quilting commissions. She does superb work. Here's an example of her work on an actual bed:

(Note that the teddy bear is NOT included, it's just there for scale....)

If you wish to commission a quilt instead of just donating (or in addition to donating), you should contact Shoshana directly at shoshana dot edwards at gmail dot com, or message her on Facebook.

Thank you very much!
