My sincere thanks to Delilah for allowing me to return to her wonderful blog and share an update of Diana Cosby’s Romance Readers Build A Habitat For Humanity Home.

A bit of background. Romance readers are AMAZING, and SO is Habitat For Humanity, a charity that I love supporting and volunteering for. Several years ago, I thought why not pair the two and help a deserving family receive a home? And, the Diana Cosby’s Romance Reader’s Build A Habitat For Humanity House fundraiser was born.

I contacted the Habitat For Humanity office in Grayson County, Texas, where I’ve had the honor of helping with several builds and spoke with Laurie Mealy, Executive Director. She embraced the project and was thrilled at the thought of pairing romance readers, who love stories where heroes and heroines overcome challenges to make their dreams come true, with making the dream of home ownership for a deserving family a reality.

Goal: Fund an entire home – $55,000.

I kicked off the challenge by donating $200. As I write this, we’ve raised $18,938, which includes donations from several countries. Romance readers are amazing, and I have complete faith that as the stories they love, they will continue to join together to raise the amount necessary to give a deserving family a home.

How it works: As readers send donations to Habitat for Humanity of Grayson County for the ‘Diana Cosby’s Readers Build A Habitat For Humanity House of Love,’ the total contributions are updated below the house graphic on the upper right side of the homepage. Donations can be sent via PayPal by ‘clicking’ on the house, which takes you to the donation page, or by mailing a check or money order to:

Habitat for Humanity of Grayson County
901 N. Grand Avenue
P.O. Box 2725
Sherman, TX 75091

*Please note on your donation: ‘For the Romance Readers Build A HFH House.’

Again, my sincere thanks to Delilah for allowing me to return to her blog, and another huge thanks to everyone for helping make an incredible difference in a deserving family’s life. For when they walk into a Habitat For Humanity house, it’s more thank mortar and wood, but a place where they can call home.

Contest

Comment for a chance to win! ***ONE winner will be drawn from everyone who posts on my Habitat For Humanity post on Delilah’s blog between May 27th, 2019 – June 2nd, 2019. The winner will receive one of my mugs and a tote.

God bless,

Now, this is important. YOU CANNOT POST ANSWERS TO MY QUESTIONS IN THE COMMENTS. If you do, you’ve done the work and shared the answers with everyone else, and what’s the point? You don’t want competition for the prize, do you? NO! Send your answers to me PRIVATELY at Delilah@delilahdevlin.com!

Scavenger Hunt

Here are the questions…

1. What are the first three stories listed on my Upcoming Books/Coming Soon page?
2. Which series on my By Series page would you like to see more of?
3. How many Strokes volumes are listed on my Standalone page?
4. What free piece of fan fiction do I offer on my Extras page, and what TV show is it written for?
5. Tell me which story on my Short Stories page you’d most like to read (not the first three; they aren’t written!). (You might get a surprise!)

*~*~*

What are your plans for the weekend? Mine include a boatload of edits, a ton of new pages, and a trip to the zoo with the 6-year-old! She’s never seen a live tiger, and that’s the animal she most wants to see. So, I’ll be braving 91-degree weather to take her. Ugh. They do have wheelchairs to rent… 🙂

Maybe your plans include reading…?

Let me know what your plans are for a chance to win a copy of your choice of any one of my short stories (except for the first three–they’re still in development)! I’ll choose three winners!

UPDATE: The winner is…Colleen C!

I’ve had this cover image for quite a while. I bought it because I thought it was hilarious, and I knew I had to write a short story to go along with it—because, hey, I can write something short and hilarious and probably no one will read it, but I’d giggle every time I thought about it.

I have my idea in my head, but I thought I’d share the giggles. So, you tell me a story. Doesn’t have to be long. What story do you think this photo is trying to tell. Do it, and you’ll be entered to win a $5 Amazon gift card. Now, go!
