Hello to all our terrific donors!
It's now Day 30 of our Read For Pixels 2015 IWD Indiegogo fundraiser and we've raised $4,051 (approximately 68%) - that's two-thirds of the way to our minimum $6000 goal!
Thank you all for your generous donations to our campaign and keep spreading the word to your fellow fans, geeks, and book lovers because if we reach the $6,000 fundraising goal, Indiegogo will give us a 3.75% completion bonus - that means more funds going towards efforts to end violence against women.
UPDATES, UPDATES:
The most popular perks being claimed over the past week are:
1. Kami Garcia's BEAUTIFUL DARKNESS Reader Pack.
2. Marie Lu's rare collector's edition of LEGEND
3. Yasmine Galenorn's PANTHER PROWLING Pamper Pack!

1. 3 sets of Kami Garcia's full swag pack for fans of THE LEGION.

HOT PERKS ALERT:
1. This week's featured perk is the uber-cool "Cameo + Haiku" pack by bestselling Urban Fantasy author Jaye Wells. The donor claiming this perk will become a minor character in Jaye's next book and can specify whether they would like to meet a creatively sticky end in the book. Plus, Jaye will compose a handwritten Haiku for the donor to enjoy while they await the publication of the book they are in.
2. New York Times bestselling author Yasmine Galenorn is offering a collectible perk in the form of specially commissioned art cards of her OTHERWORLD characters. They aren't available anywhere else except from Yasmine and she's giving them to donors for just a $25 donation to the cause.
