After researching abusive relationships for her most recent novel Dearest Rose (which we gave 10/10 last year), Rowan Coleman wants to do something for the people who found the courage to share their stories with her.
Tomorrow, on 10th September, Arrow will publish Rowan's novella Woman Walks into a Bar as an ebook, and 100% of her royalties will go to Refuge. The goal is to raise £10,000.
Rowan says:
"Please come and join me on September 10th, tweet me with the hashtags #supportafriend and #womanwalks and tell me about your best friends and what they mean to you, my favourite tweet will win a prize! And more importantly PLEASE buy a copy of Woman Walks into a Bar or even two, and get your friends to buy one too. Be a friend to another woman you have never even met, and maybe help them begin the journey that will change their lives for the better. As part of my campaign I have created #supportafriend campaign, which is all about being a best friend to a woman you don’t know and supporting another women who finds herself in a place where she needs the help and advice of an organisation like Refuge."
We've got our pre-orders in already and wish Rowan the very best of luck with this important cause.
