Writers have an opportunity to bid on a featured spot on David L Harrison’s Blog. The highest bidder will be featured on an upcoming post and the money will go to the Writers Hall of Fame scholarship fund. For more than a decade this organization has recognized an outstanding writer each year and provided college scholarships for high school seniors who dream of pursuing their interests in becoming writers.
Money for the scholarships comes from donations and from an auction held at the banquet to honor the year’s inductee. The date this year is March 19. My donation is to feature someone on my blog. David has featured authors such as Jane Yolen, Lee Bennet Hopkins to name a few. The highest bidder for the featured spot will have a picture, an article by the bidder on some aspect of children’s literature, a personal essay on his or her journey as a writer, or provide a questions and answers interview. It is for a good cause. http://davidlharrison.wordpress.com/2011/03/09/silent-auction-for-a-featured-spot/ You can contact David at [email protected]
