    Our reproductive rights are being stripped away, but perhaps this bit of nice news will help: there are some good-hearted writers doing what they can to help the situation.

    The Authors for Abortion Access are having an auction (which starts tomorrow and runs through July 26), and the proceeds will go to the National Network of Abortion Funds Collective Power Fund and Keep Our Clinics.

    Organized by R.F Kuang and Vaishnavi Patel, this auction brings together the work of 24 sci-fi and fantasy writers. A few notable items include: a signed and sold-out edition of V.E. Schwab’s The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue; a special edition of the Bridgerton set, signed by Julia Quinn; and an embossed, leather-bound Coraline (they only made 100 copies, and Neil Gaiman will sign and personalize it for you).

    Check out the full list here.
