October last
year I launched my first Novel at a school venue where I had decided to equally
divide all proceeds between Avalon Private School, and Starfish Greathearts
foundation in South Africa. I was so happy with the efforts and results that I have
decided to make it an annual book drive. This year we will carry on accepting
paperbacks and ebooks (in epub version only) to fill the shelves to the brim at
Avalon Private school, thus adding more reading pleasure to their newly
established library. Next year I have decided to help build a library at a hospital in our area.
Libraries
and reading are quickly becoming less of an enjoyment or art form in our
schools, everywhere. In South Africa I could probably count on my one hand how
many local schools actually boast a library. We need books desperately in South
Africa. I am not only accepting children’s books but I think it’s time South
African youth find out what Young Adult books can show, teach and evoke within
them. By exposing these young adults and children to the wild, exciting worlds
we create we can breed a best seller author for sure. Share your dream, build
a dream, and ignite the future with us!
Avalon Now has a library! Thanks to your efforts:
