Gaza Evacuation Fund Book Auction
The situation on the ground in Gaza has only grown more dire in the past seven months. Millions of Palestinians are at risk of death by starvation, disease, bombing, infection, sniper, and more at Israel’s hands.
This auction is designed to raise money for Palestinians who are trying to flee Gaza and survive genocide. We’re asking the book community to join together and donate the funds necessary to help Palestinians escape to safety with their loved ones.
The auction will run from May 3rd, 2024 until 11:59 PM EST on May 12th, 2024.
Check out the auction HERE.

It is surreal.
I’m trying out new ways of engaging with my debut novel, The Jinn Daughter (TJD), out April 2, 2024. Though I don’t listen to music when I write, there are songs that match either the mood or the storyline in TJD. Have a listen and be sure to follow.
