ITEM: Dedication in the front of Jill Mansell’s next book.
DETAILS: Hi, I’m Jill Mansell, romantic comedy novelist. I’ve written twenty two books and sold over five million copies to date.
For this auction I’m offering the dedication which will be printed in the front of every edition of my next book, due to be published next February. Something along the lines of: This book is dedicated with grateful thanks to XXXXXXXXXXX for so generously supporting Authors for Japan, set up on 12th March 2011 to raise funds for victims of the earthquake. (But it doesn’t have to say that – it can be whatever you would like the dedication to say. Within reason!)
And of course I’ll sign and send the very first copy off to you before the rest go into the shops.
Please bid for this – I’ll look such a numpty if no one does!
I’ll open the bidding at £5.

Hard to compete with Elsewine Rietveld’s donation – I think I’ve come in too late to bid against that figure. But Jill Mansell books are worth it. That, and more. Happy bidding to everyone!

Elsewine, you won! Hooray, I’m so glad it’s you!
