Winners

We had you thinking on your toes with the whole EASTERN standard time thing and we had some very close calls!

Alas, here are the official winners. If you believe an error has been made, please contact me at dare at cynthealiu dot com.

Auction Winners by Bidder
Winning Bid Amounts by Darer (Author/Agent/Editor/Illustrator)

PLEASE NOTE:

• Cheryl Klein, out of the kindness of her heart, awarded her top three bidders critiques at the highest winning bid price. So that’s why you see her listed three times now. BTW, if you have not heard about Cheryl’s special book project, please check it out and support her efforts. This is one book that’ll be a sure winner for all of us writers in the industry.
• Jennifer Rofe of Andrea Brown Literary Agency has also extended another critique for the top bid price. Thank you, Jen!
• Tracey Adams of Adams Literary has just given another critique for the top bid price. Whoot-whoot!
• Cynthea Liu, the auction organizer herself, has also extended a full manuscript critique to another top bidder  to help those kids at Tulakes. But please don’t ask for more unless you are willing to wait until 2o10 for it.

Now If there are any other Darers (Editors/Agents/Authors/Illustrators) who would like to do the same for your biggest fans and help out even more kids at Tulakes, please contact me immediately!

WAYS TO PAY

Once your funds have been received and cleared, we’ll let you know how to redeem the prizes you have won. Please do NOT contact Darers directly about this or you will have a mad bunny on your hands. **FUNDS must be cleared before prizes can be redeemed.**

Paypal/Credit Card

• Please add up your item prices and pay for them together. This reduces transaction costs and more money will go to Tulakes.
• When you reach the DESCRIPTION field, say enough so I know which items you are buying. (e.g., Karre Crit #2, Liu Prize Pack, Brown YA Crit)
• Don’t worry about the Quantity column at all. “1″ doesn’t mean anything. You can still buy all your items w/one payment.
• You do NOT have to have a Paypal account to use the Paypal Credit Card service. Just click the “Continue” link in the bottom right hand corner of the main screen that you will see AFTER you click on the BUY NOW button below.
• Your mailing address is collected in the event your prize or finished crit must be mailed to you.
• READY? Use the box doodad below to start the Paypal or Credit Card payment process.

Email or Name used for bidding

Cashier’s Check or Money Order

You may make cashier’s checks and money orders directly to CYNTHEA LIU. <—Note the spelling. There is a surprise “E” in there.

However, payment by Paypal or Credit Card is strongly encouraged so you don’t have to worry about lost payments from the mail. Keep a record of your payment and know what to do if it gets lost because we won’t be able to help you at all with that. You are welcome to Fedex, UPS, etc. Contact Cynthea for a suitable mailing address if that is your plan.

Otherwise, you may mail it to:
Cynthea Liu
P.O. Box 577552
Chicago, IL 60613

If you do not hear from Cynthea about your payment, assume she has received it. You will be contacted if there is a problem, rest assured.

Please make your payment ASAP so we can move on to the next step of getting your prizes to you. You will receive another notice about delivery of prizes and coordination of critiques soon.

BUT REMEMBER: YOUR PAYMENT KICKS OFF THE PROCESS.

Pay, then play!

Okay?

Thanks again for Taking the Dare and Showing You Care!

Finally, CONGRATULATIONS on your win(s) and thank you again for supporting the kids and teachers at Tulakes. Mwah!
