FAQ
Q: When and how was Silicon Valley Novel formed?
A: Silicon Valley Novel started in 2008. We’re a fresh start-up with a different focus. Silicon Valley Novel is helping the world one book at a time. Our proceeds are donated to charity.
Q: What percentage of proceeds from each book goes to charity?
A: Every dollar made from book sales is sent to non-profits. No one at Silicon Valley Novel gets rich. No one gets famous. But many lives are saved and that’s what counts. We help the world through Doctors Without Borders, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize for providing medical care to the underprivileged in countries across the globe. We support America through the Red Cross. We assist our community through Second Harvest Food Bank.
Q: Do you have a mission statement?
A: So far, we’re small enough that everyone at Silicon Valley Novel has a full time job in addition to using their skills for creating new works of fiction. Our coalition of professional talent is a form of the “volunteerism” Michelle Obama called for in her speech asking Americans to help their country and their world. The focus of our “volunteerism” has several facets:
· Improve our world by assisting those in need
· Increase literacy by intriguing reluctant readers
· Entice children to learn science and make them aware of other cultures
· Emphasize storytelling and clarity in our books.
