I'd also like to get God out of the pledge of allegiance....

Happy Pennies Birthday!!!! Go you! (I to must go, to secure a copy....)

Make it pay for entering your brain. Question it. Interrogate what is meant by "founding."

Looking forward to when it comes out in paperback!

you could always sort out your junk draw right now and carefully put everything out on the kitchen counter to contemplate.....plenty of time for tomorrow for other less important tasks....

D looks even better.

thank You for writing it for me and others of my ilk!

I love the side eye!

I will keep my eyes out for a copy in the wild to send your way if I get lucky! Or you could come visit again, to enjoy an enticing assortment of snow bound vintage fiction (and my company)

do try it then! I am a fan of snowbound stories, and this one is top notch in that regard!

As a foreign service kid in the Bahamas in the 70s I went with my parents to a swanky pool party. I was told later the unsmiling bearded guy in a corner was Sean Connery which meant nothing. The chlorine stink of the grotto you had to swim under water to enter was much more memorable.

If you need any information about fish in precontact period Rhode Island, when you could apparently walk across rivers on the backs of spawning fish, let me know!

while in the meantime I am busily pulling it up in my own US woods because it is a horrible invasive here.....#sad

It isn't me!

yeah, why can't coal miners have nice things?
