Monday News Tidbit – A fundraising tribute to Miranda Neville
Publishing Newsfundraising / In Memoriam / Library1 Comments
Frances Mallary Memorial Fund — Friends of Frances Mallary – aka Miranda Neville – have started a GoFundMe page to raise money in her memory for the Tenney Memorial Library in Newbury, Vt where she was also a board member.
We’re establishing the Frances Mallary Memorial Fund, which will allow the Tenney librarian to purchase books, audio books, or e-books in Frances’ name with a particular focus on the genres she loved most like history, historical fiction, and romance.
Our goal is to raise $10,000 by what would have been her sixty-third birthday, August 26, 2018. Reaching this figure would allow the Frances Mallary Memorial Fund to become an endowment—a self-financing vehicle that will continue to buy books in her name for as long as the endowment survives.
As popular as her books are here at DA, I can’t believe I’ve never read one. Must remedy that.
What a great way to honor a lovely person and author. I will miss Miranda Neville’s voice in the historical romance genre for a long time to come. I donated.
