An illustration by Chris Riddell raised £400 for Greenpeace in an impromptu auction held at the end of a launch event at Waterstones Brighton for Nicky Singer’s crowd-funded novelisation of her stage-play Island.
The novel Island will be reviewed by ACHUKA shortly.
For background to the reasons why an author of Nicky Singer’s calibre needed to crowd fund her novel, read her blog post, which also forms an Afterword to the novel.
