The Name Game...

If you can ante up enough bucks, you, too, can be immortalized in prose. In a charity auction on Ebay beginning Sept. 1, high bidders will have the opportunity to have their names (or a name of their choosing) incorporated into the novel of one of 16 well-known authors, including Stephen King, John Grisham, Amy Tan, Dave Eggers, or even Lemony Snicket. All proceeds go to First Amendment Project. -- Amy
