Rain Taxi Benefit Auction
Rain Taxi is one of my favorite review publications. It's smart, beautifully designed, and has a good reputation for reviewing "literary" and "genre" work side-by-side, understanding that it's all part of the spectrum known as "fiction". You could do worse than subscribe.But, the main point of this post is that they're running an auction including books by myself and many others. It's a pretty impressive list. Rain Taxi survives on donations, subscriptions, and things like this auction. Here's more information. (You can also check out the info on their site.)Back and bigger than ever, our benefit auction allows you to support Rain Taxi and get cool stuff at the same time!
