The 300

It’s said that more than 300 writers, editors, and bloggers are participating today in Patry Francis Blog Day, supporting the author of The Liar’s Diary (just released in paperback) as she battles cancer. Since she’s unable to go on tour to promote her novel, the crime-fiction community is banding together in this way to help out.

The campaign was organized by fellow writer Laura Benedict (Isabella Moon) and features both a book trailer for The Liar’s Diary and an audio clip from Francis’ story. More on this potentially powerful promotions project can be found here, here, and here.

We wish Ms. Patry well in her difficult struggle.
