| Local Stroud Refugee Cafe - Rasmachaz
I am serious about re-orienting my life towards helping others, and I am not alone. I have met so many amazing people trying to do 'something' to make a difference. I left my job to do this.
There are so many other people doing everything they can to help those in need, particularly refugees fleeing war and persecution. 'Rasmachaz' is a local cafe in Stroud High Street which sells clothes and other things to support the refugees in the local area. GARAS ('Gloucestershire Action for Refugees and Asylum Seekers) is a similar venture.
I aim to raise funds for both of these organisations as well as for international charities such as UNICEF.
I will do this by selling e-books and other things. I aim to use a 'Pay what the reader considers the book is worth' basis and will donate at least 20% of whatever profits I make from each of the books. I need to take some very basic living expenses out but if I make more money then I will donate a higher percentage.
My first e-book (A science fiction novella called 'The Ascension of Saints') is out in the new year.
This image shows the sort of things that your donations will buy. I am sure the other charities have similar lists. It does make a real difference to peoples lives. I love writing and I am good at it, but really this is about helping people in dire need. It is not about me. I hope you can support me, and more importantly support the refugees.

Hello, I am Andrew and welcome to my blog 'Fisky's Scribbling'. Recently, motivated by the terrible refugee crisis, I abandoned my safe, paid employment as a software engineer and I am attempting to use my writing to help these vulnerable people. I hope to raise awareness and funding for these kind of causes. So, please support me, and more importantly them.
