Hi folks!
It’s that day of the year again in the UK. People have been raising money all week (and all year-round in some cases) for this worthy cause.
Chris Moyles and the Radio One team have broken a world record by broadcasting live for over 52 hours and raised over a million pounds! http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/12782536
Scott Mills took part in the desert trek and lots of other celebs have given up their time to raise money for Comic Relief.
Personally, I helped collect over £120 at work today and shaved the FD’s beard off! That was fun! Do you really give a girl who writes about crime and serial killers for a living a cut-throat razor?! 😉
Anyway, we want to do our bit. So, here’s our pledge:
For every book sale of Sugar & Spice between the hours of 19.00 – 00.00 on Friday 18th March 2011 in the UK, we will donate 10p to Comic Relief. I have started a thread on the Amazon Kindle forum, the link is here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/tag/fiction/forum/ref=cm_cd_ttp_ef_tft_tp?_encoding=UTF8&cdForum=Fx35L6AIBJFGDP0&cdThread=Tx2X1ITHMMKRC3F&displayType=tagsDetail
All I ask, is that when you have purchased the book, you pop into the thread and leave me a message telling me that you have done so (Just once). I will then add the messages up at midnight and donate 10p for every message. I will post confirmation of the donation here on the blog the next day. Simples!
So tell your friends, share it on Facebook and Twitter and buy the book now! You are not only getting a great read, but you are doing your bit for Red Nose Day!
Get it now: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sugar-Spice-full-length-crime-thriller/dp/B004AYDK22
Thank you.

/ March 18, 2011Ouch! Chris Moyles?
For four months I’ve managed without having once heard or seen the name Chris Moyles. Not for a second as he entered my thoughts. Until today…
Luckily it was a fleeting moment and he’s gone again now.
No rain and no Chris Moyles for four months solid. Bliss!

/ March 19, 2011Unfortunately, not many people bothered to leave messages on the thread, so we will just donate an extra £25 to Comic Relief instead. I will post a screen snip of the donation tomorrow.

/ March 23, 2011I have today donated £30 on my work comic relief sponsor form, to include the £25 from the above promotion. I will scan and post a copy on this blog when everyone else has donated, before we send it off.
