Help create shelter libraries:

Living in a shelter is the most boring thing on Earth. It's like being in an airplane for weeks. If you have books lying around that you're willing to give up, please mail them and help save the refugees' sanity. If anyone has books they could mail but can't afford the cost, be aware that a) media mail is slower but cheaper, and b) you can email me and I will write you a check for the purpose.

Since I'm about to get on a plane, can you do me a favor and find out if they're accepting books for adults as well?

I emailed the SCBWI Houston advisor to clarify ... I haven't heard back, but it sounds from an email earlier today like they are indeed focusing on children's/YA, so I think I'd assume that until we hear otherwise. (I've just edited my own journal entry to reflect this.)
