Each week I do this thing on Twitter called #buyastrangerabook.
People buy strangers books. It's great.
If you want a bit more info, here it is.
Anyway, a few months ago, when it was announced that David Cameron was going to be bringing out his autobiography "Look, it Wasn't My Fault" "For The Record", I wasn't that keen on the idea of selling it.
It was suggested that I did a special "#buyastrangerabookButNotCameron
Sounded good.
People suggested certain books to buy instead. A lot of people suggested, "James O'Brien's, How to Be Right...in a world gone wrong" and there were many other suggestions too
HOWEVER...
David Cameron got an £800k advance for this book, but profits from the sales of the book will be going to certain charities.
One of these is the Alzheimer's Society
I wouldn't want charities to miss out, so instead of selecting a certain book, I will donate £1 for every £10 I take today (that's about 38% of MY profit, I reckon) through #buyastrangerabook to The Alzheimer's Society.
Of course, you can simply donate money to them HERE.
That's it really.
Ta.
