Description
“We all know how fragile life is, especially when
faced with a life threatening illness.” ~Nic, Flirty and Dirty Book Blog.
Fiction introduced us. Reality binds us together.
Stephanie Thomas—co-founder of The Indie
Bookshelf—has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer called
glioblastoma. Stephanie isn’t only a blogger; she’s a loving wife, and mother
to three young boys.
In the independent author community, we have an
extraordinary network of fellow authors, and readers. A special group of people
who bridge this gap—helping authors connect with readers—is book bloggers.
These men and women dedicate hours upon hours to reading and reviewing our
works, and spreading the word to help us reach new readers.
Now, one of these women needs our help.
100% of the proceeds of the Rise Up anthology
(volumes one and two) will go directly to Stephanie and her family to help them
on this unexpected leg of their journey together.
Inside the pages of this collection, you’ll find
amazing works of fiction. But please remember the reality, and help support
Stephanie and her family.
