Character Name Auction Ended
On October 20th, I posted news about the opportunity for fans to bid on an auction where the winner would have the chance to have their name put into a future Shannara novel written by Terry.
The proceeds from the auction would go to schools, libraries, and children.
I am here to report the auction was a great success! It exceeded Terry's expectations. Two years ago Terry did this and the winning bidder gave around $1500 for the opportunity to have his name in the book. That is how the G'Home Gnome Shoopdiesel came into being.
This time, the winning bidder gave $7325.00 to have his/her name in the future Shannara book!
$7325! That is great! The money is going to children and that has to make everyone feel great about it. Terry and I are pleased and excited the auction went that high and Terry is excited to write those future Shannara books!
So congratulations to the winner, but an enormous thank you for everyone who bid. It shows the spirit of Terry's fans and I'm happy to be affiliated with all of you!
