Blind Date With a Book For Charity

Keycon’s roots are as a literary convention, and as much as we have grown beyond that initial focus, we still honour it in many ways. We have a Guest of Honour who is an author. We host various writing focused panels and discussions. There are signings, discussions and a variety of book sellers in the Dealers Room. All in all, books are still a big part of Keycon. This year we want your help to try something new, to help bring some new authors to people who might not have heard of them and most importantly raise some money for this year’s charity: Klinic.

We are looking for donations of gently used paperback books(Genres that fit keycon’s focus). Along with these donations we would like each donated book to include a point form (4 or 5 points) description of the story (Please don’t include author or title). This would be an example of what you might do if you donated Ready Player One as an example.

· Futuristic Quest
· Major Motion Picture
· Nostalgia filled
· Science Fiction & Fantasy Meet
· Evil Corporation

The donated book will be wrapped and only that description would be put on it. These books will be available at the convention for a small donation with the proceeds going to Klinic. If you are able to donate a paperback or two please email us at blinddatebooks@keycon.org to arrange pick up. All donations will earn a couple of points for the faction of your choice.
