I learned today that Patry Francis, author of 'The Liar's Diary' published in February 2007, was recently diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. She is undergoing another surgery, and her prognosis is good, but as you can imagine this is a difficult time for anyone, and particularly a newly published author who should be out on the road promoting her book.
To help Patry with promotion, please pass the following link on to all of your friends and family, and encourage them to consider 'The Liar's Diary' for their next book purchase:
Patry's blog regarding her experiences through this ordeal is wonderful, thoughtful reading, and I also encourage you to check it out. There is a link on the above web page, or you can reach the blog directly by following the link, below:

I hope you'll take a moment to help out a new author during a very difficult time!
THANKS!

and here is her article in which she spoke about having been diagnosed with Cancer:
TWO OUNCES OF BLISS
If you can sponsor a contest buy a book/buy one for a friend that will help Patry promote the book when she is unable to do so.
Kathryn, I look forward to learning more about your idea. I know it means a lot to Patry.
It is amazing and wonderful that more than 300 bloggers - SO far - and that doesn't include about 6 of the Gather members who are doing this in addition to myself - but more than 300 are promoting Patry's book today.
