SF writer's blogathon for rape crisis center

Jake sez, "Speculative fiction writer Shira Lipkin is doing a blogathon this Saturday, July 26 - posting to her LiveJournal every half hour for 24 hours to raise money for the Boston Area Rape Crisis Center. This is her sixth year blogathonning, and she writes spontaneous short fiction every year. It usually tends to have an urban fantasy bent (as in fantasy in a city, not paranormal romance), but this year, She's taking a distinctly SF angle on it. For 24 hours, She'll be in character as a xenoarchaeologist, trying to make sense of precollapse Earth... with the help of over 50 artists who donated "artifacts" to this project, including a few SF/F authors themselves. All artifacts are being auctioned, with a story card." Link, Link to auction items (Thanks, Jake!)
