The tornado outbreaks last month broke all sorts of records. The Mississippi River is flooding at levels not seen since 1937. The Red Cross is going to be busy, and they are going to need our help.

Help Write Now is a group of writers who have put together an auction to benefit relief efforts in areas of the U.S. affected by this year's storms.  The Apocalypsies have donated two packages to the auction; the first package, posted yesterday, includes 50-page critiques, query critiques, and synopsis critiques from Apocalypsies members, two ARCS, and a 10-page critique from Stacy Cantor Abrams of Walker Books for Young Readers. A second package will post at a later date.

Browse around the site while you're there-- lots of amazing items have been donated, and there's something for everyone!
