Yep. They do the same for their "Prime Day" events so items appear discounted even though they often cost more than they did before the sale began.

I'll DM you when I'm back at my desk later (bc I'm an insomniac.)

I love animal causes (we support several here in the Midwest) and I used to be a poet before I became a boring nonfiction-head.

I'm willing to pitch in if it would help.

I love that as a way to make banned books more "visible."

As much as I hate them myself some days, it's probably wishful thinking.

My wife, who you may know, converted me from canned to homemade.

This is the kindest thing anyone has ever said to me, including my wife and we genuinely adore each other.

It helps, I think, that I've made about every mistake a human can make along the way. Valuable perspective. Thanks for being here so early in my author career. I hope you'll stick around!
