Smart Bitches Trashy Books | All of the romance, none of the bullshit.

Thanks to Bitchery reader Lisa, who sent me a link to her site where she reposted an announcement that all proceeds in perpetuity for the sale of All Through The Night, her new Troubleshooters book, will be donated to MassEquality, which is fighting to preserve equal marriage rights in Massachusetts. According to MassEquality, her gift has already surpassed $250,000.

Says Brockmann,

I fervently hope by the time you read this that my son’s right to marry will have been preserved.

But if not, then I have this to say to the people who are rapidly becoming a minority themselves, people who don’t think that gay Americans should have the same rights as the rest of us--

What part of love don’t you understand?

To everyone else, to all the friends of Jules--past, present and future--thank you for believing, and for helping to change the world.

Word up to Suzanne Brockmann.

Updated to add:

I just found out that Ms. Brockmann is signing books in NJ today, but I’d never get to the store in time. But! Harvey, the nice owner of The Clinton Book Shop is going to grab five copies for me and ask Awesome Brockmann to sign them. SO! Five copies will go to Bitchery readers, and royalties will go to MassEquality, and I’ll eventually trek out to Clinton to tell Harvey how awesome he is.

Hmm. Now. How to giveaway those five books. Ideas?
