THE AFTERMATH.

As most of you probably know, numerous efforts are being undertaken within the romance genre to assist the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

The auction to help Larissa Ione is now under way. Find out more about it and how to donate/bid at Romaid.

Romance Designs is hosting a charity fundraiser to benefit the Red Cross. Find out how to donate/bid for the prize packs here.

Among other things, many authors have donated autographed books to both these causes, as well as to additional efforts. So if you've always wanted an autographed book from a particular author (or have family and/or friends who have), be sure to check the lists to see what's available!
