It's one of the easiest ways to support an author: if you don't see their work in the catalog, put in a request! And, at least in Canada, authors can get money based on how many libraries carry their works

It's my job to buy books for my local library. One thing I wish more people knew is that we are very open to suggestions for new titles. I buy 90% of books that people suggest. Please, let your library know the kinds of things you want to read. It's helpful!

Fifteen to go...

Pray for me. My current earworm is one of those songs where the first minute thirty is a BANGER but then it turns to liquid shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit Gotta keep playing it though, like a little quicktime event where I try to pause and start over before it gets to The Brown Note.

Progress! But what if...more progress?
