These awesome authors have donated exclusive goodies to this special “Read For Pixels” RallyUp fundraiser to encourage fans and book lovers to give generously to keep our anti-Violence Against Women work alive. Additional goodies come courtesy of Adrian Tchaikovsky (with Macmillan Books UK), Alma Alexander, Charles de Lint, David D. Levine, Jen Williams, Juliet E. McKenna, Laura Anne Gilman, Leanna Renee Hieber, Richard K. Morgan, and Tananarive Due.





WEEK 5 (3 - 10 October 2019): It's Flash Donation Drive week with loads of treats now at a more affordable donation request than before - all critique sessions to be had for a $175 donation, ditto for most of author Skype calls. Plus all our tuckerisation perks are bundled up with signed and personalised books you can read for waiting for the book where your minor character will appear in to be published!





Goodies will be released in weekly rounds, so check back every Friday to get fresh dibs on the latest lot of exclusive donor perks!





Funds raised will go towards developing and/or expanding our campaigns, programmes, and projects to end violence against women. These include: providing a daily Twitter session featuring rape and domestic violence hotlines in over 30 countries worldwide; producing educational resources including an anti-VAW virtual toolkit and interviews with anti-VAW activists; as well as online engagement programmes for various communities including survivors, fathers, fandoms, and more.





In addition, the funds raised will help us unveil our first exclusive mystery Celebrity Male Role Model Pixel Reveal portrait online featuring a much-loved Nobel Laureate. Every dollar donated reveals 1 pixel of that portrait. Picture a virtual jigsaw puzzle being assembled by people from San Francisco to Sydney who donate $1 dollar per pixel!





Once this RallyUp fundraiser is completed and all donations received and toted up, our team will unveil the corresponding number of pixels covering the mystery portrait collage. So if we only get the meaning of life ($42), we will unveil 42 pixels. If we meet and exceed our modest starter goal of $5000 (which the authors and us darn well hope so!), we’ll unveil 5000 pixels... or more. Back in the March 2019 International Women's Day Edition, we raised $5,010 (5,010 pixels), taking us to $68,541 (68,541 pixels) raised across the board, so please donate generously to help us unveil more! Don’t you wanna know who the first male role model is?
