My pen name is L.S. Sharrow, and I am writer. I live in Chicago, Illinois USA.

I am establishing a Patreon Page, called A NICE JEWISH GIRL, where I will be having videotaped conversations with those who campaign against Antisemitism.

I will be traveling to the UK, where I plan to meet with Lesley Klaff, editor-in-chief of the Journal of Contemporary Antisemitism. I also plan to interview David Hirsh, director of the London Centre for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism and Gillian Gould Lazarus, long-time campaigner against Antisemitism.

Well-respected Anglo-Israeli journalist, David Collier, of Investigative Journalist Exposing Extremism and Antisemitism, also plans to converse with me, as does Jonny Gould, sports reporter for BBC and Sportsmedia and podcaster.

Authors Darren Walker and Edward Martin plan to meet with me for videotaped conversations.

The funds are entirely for myself, my travel, hotel and food expenses. NO FUNDS WILL BE USED TO SUPPORT ANY WAR OR CONFLICT. While some of my costs will be covered, transportation to and from the UK and on the ground are not. Neither are hotel expenses. And while I have some places to stay, I'll need to spend a week or more in London to interview those unable to travel to my as-yet-to-be-established homebase. That will involve hotel and on-the-ground travel expenses.

I also plan to do further research for my next whodunnit, GINA SLOTKIN, PRIVATE DIC MURDER MYSTERY. My fictional character, Gina, is a tough-girl Jewish PI from Chicago, who gets caught up exposing neo-Nazis in Europe. She does this despite just trying to make a living.

If you have no funds to spare or can only spare $1 or two, as most of us do in these terrible times, please just share this post. And thank you.
