G'day guys
Would any of you be interested in donating one of your beautiful books (or something else) to the AHWA benefit/fundraiser for Aussie author Rocky Wood?

Rocky was recently diagnosed with ALS (aka Lou Gehrig's Disease)
The money raised at this event (hopefully at least $20,000) will go towards a device that will allow eye based communication for Rocky as his disease progresses.
Donations so far include a mixture of books/dvds/illustrations/editing services from Stephen King, Cemetery Dance Publications, Johnathon Schaech, Tim Lebbon, Gary McMahon, Michael Marshall Smith, Jeffrey Thomas, Rocky Wood, Geoff Brown, Bev Vincent, Kealan Patrick Burke and Greg Chapman - Just to name a few..... :)
So please be generous and consider donating something special to this auction
You can contact me at wandaful@johnathonschaech.net for more details
Thanks guys
Love Wendy
xoxo

Hey everyone
The AHWA has most AMAZING books up for auction - and more coming in every day
But NOW we need to get some bidders
So PLEASE dig deep everyone - There's no point having all these wonderful books if no one will buy them
You can remote bid anytime between now and the auction

If anyone has a problem understanding the bidding system, please let me know - however it's pretty self explanatory
Cheers
Wendy

And thank you Nanci and Horror World for your incredibly generous donation XOXOXOOXOXOXO

Post subject:  Re: AHWA Benefit for Rocky Wood
I have a question. Are those donating shipping the books to Australia, or are they shipping them from their homes? I live in the U.S. and see that many of these books are being donated from people in the U.S., and the shipping would be A LOT less if it was shipped to the winner if both were in the U.S.

Thanks, and I will try to bid on an item and if I cannot or do not win, I will make a donation. And one last thing...no paypal?

Thanks again Wendy.
Tony

Post subject:  Re: AHWA Benefit for Rocky Wood
G'day back at you Wendy! The only other thing I would ask is if it could be posted on the site from which country the items are going to ship from. I see some things I would like to bid on, but the last time ordered a book from your fair country it cost me $25.00 in shipping. I'd like to bid on something that will ship from the U.S. if possible.

Thanks!

p.s. do you say G'day when meeting and leaving also?

ha... only when meeting
We say seeya when leaving...lol

I TOTALLY understand about postage costs
Best to contact Erin Muscat at eventschair@gmail.com

Gracie Hart: In Hawaii, don't they use aloha for, like, hello and goodbye?
Miss Hawaii: So?
Gracie Hart: So if you're on the phone with somebody and they won't stop talking, how do you get them? You say, 'Okay take care, aloha' don't they just start over again?

So, you're saying g'day is better than aloha :lol

Not sure I understand this process, but I just submitted a bid for an item.

YAY - good onya
And what don't you understand about the bidding?
I can try and explain it to you if you like

Oh and last days everyone to BID BID BID..!!!

Post subject:  Re: AHWA Benefit for Rocky Wood
Onya? I think I knew a girl called Onya once, but maybe I'm mistaking her with Uma...oh well.

I wasn't sure if I was allowed to bid early. Rereading it, I think I was able to do so. Believe it or not Wendy, not all of us are as slow as I am in the States. My VCR still blinks.

Post subject:  Re: AHWA Benefit for Rocky Wood
hehe
VCR you say???... Hmmmmmmmmmm

And yep you need to vote BEFORE the auction if it's a remote bid
So you had a bid on everything right??? right?? RIGHT???? :t

Post subject:  Re: AHWA Benefit for Rocky Wood
Why yes I did. But I might have screwed that up too though. I got a reply that said I had won the dingo. Not sure what that is, but it can't be good.

No worries
It'll be fine - They make wonderful pets - assuming you don't have babies at home of course :lol

Post subject:  Re: AHWA Benefit for Rocky Wood
I bid on an item. I didn't hear back so I assume I didn't win.

Post subject:  Re: AHWA Benefit for Rocky Wood
SO SORRY for taking so long to get back to you all
The auction went really well although there are plenty of items still available
http://www.australianhorror.com/index.php?view=289

This from Rocky:
I was just advised that over $7900 was raised on Saturday at the joint AAA/AHWA Halloween function to raise funds to help buy an Eye-Gaze Device, which will allow me to communicate as my MND/ALS progresses. There are still some auction items available (more on that later). This is a big dent in the $25,000 target and takes the Fund to about $18,000 - how wonderful!

Of course my family and I are humbled by the amount raised and by the work everyone put in. The Australian American Association, the Australian Horror Writers Association, Erin Muscat , Geoff Brown , Wandaful Wendy , the volunteers who helped, the donors of goods and monies, and those who bid on the auction items all personify what I mentioned on the night - the wondrous community that AAA and Horror both represent - the best of the human condition.

Jazminsdaddy - Let me know what you bid on and I will confirm that for you mate

Cheers and much love and musk sticks
Wendy
