Sponsor Me Please!!

I hope you’ll indulge me for a moment. This is personal.

We have a family member with MDS blood cancer so as a thank you for all the treatment she has received, I’m raising money for THE LEUKEMIA & LYMPHOMA SOCIETY.  I’m hoping to raise at least $2,000.  On September 23rd I’m going to do a self-supported 100km bike ride and I’d love it if you’d sponsor me.  If any local riders want to join me on part of the route to pace me during the ride, let me know.  If you’d like to buy autographed books for your donation, let me know.  Every little bit helps.  Thank you for your support.

If you’d like to donate, please go to my fundraising page here.

Charity Ride–Please Read


Last year, my wife suffered a cancer scare that resulted a benign tumor being removed. In her honor, I’m riding in a 100-mile bike ride to raise money for two cancer clinics. I’ve raised over a $1100 so far.

In addition to the bike ride, anyone who purchases the ebook version of my thriller PAYING THE PIPER from Amazon, Amazon UK, Barnes & Noble and Smashwords during the weekend of May 14-15 and I’ll donate royalties to the cancer clinics. My wife and I chose this book because it’s her favorite and it’s one we think people enjoy.

Alternatively, people are welcome to sponsor me, you can make a donation to the charity here.

Please feel free to forward this to others, I’m hoping to have to write a big check. 🙂
