Operation Mallory was set up to help a fellow author, Stephen C. Spencer has written some great books, but Steve also has cancer. He’s suffered with a brain tumour for a while, and kept it pretty quiet. The observant among you will notice he stopped blogging and tweeting.
All the authors who follow this blog will appreciate how hard it is getting your book noticed. If you can’t promote, then your books go unseen and unloved. For someone in the USA (where medical treatment isn’t paid for by the state), this is a double whammy. You lose income while incurring huge unexpected bills.
So I’m helping spread the word, here is a link to Sean Campbell’s blog where news of the campaign can be found 90 Days Novel. Please help all you can with re-blog, tweet etc.
Here’s a bit more about Steve’s books
Dubbed “America’s James Bond”, Paul Mallory is a journalist working for the secretive Cramer Corporation. They don’t sell newspapers. Instead, they have equally secretive subscribers who pay a million bucks a year to find out about the news before it happens.
Paul is dispatched to report from the frontlines in what can only be described as immersive journalism. Frequently Paul goes beyond merely reporting the news – he becomes a part of it.
The Paul Mallory series, written by US Navy Vet and cancer survivor Stephen C Spencer has won acclaim from critics and readers alike. With four novels out and one on the way, the Paul Mallory series has plenty to offer the keen thriller reader.
In 2014, Crimeways of Indiana are-releasing the entire Paul Mallory series with beautiful new covers:
For a limited time book one in the series, IT’S ALWAYS DARKEST, is totally free to download at http://viewbook.at/ItsAlwaysDarkest
For the next month the Paul Mallory series is on the biggest book tour in internet history. Find out more and get involved at http://goo.gl/D3TrCK
Stephen C. Spencer is the author of the increasingly-popular Paul Mallory series. Spencer lives in central Indiana with his wife, Melissa, and their two children, Kaitlyn and Evan. Find out more about him at http://www.StephenCSpencer.com

I just shared your post on Facebook, and now I will check out his blog and get his book. I’m so glad you posted this. My heart goes out to Stephen. Glad he has friends and fans like you. I’m not very technically minded, so if you tell me “how” to re-blog this, I’d be happy to do so.

Not sure if you can re-blog to BlogSpot from WordPress. You can however copy and paste the URL for this post, which should be at the top of your viewing page, into a little post on your blog, perhaps saying, please visit this post and support a fellow author etc. Hope this helps. I’m not very technical either!
