A Letter on Behalf of All Readers

Dear Book Publishers/Sellers, I will make my plea up front. Can you please sell a physical/ebook combo when a book releases? Please?

Bright Spots in the Gloomy Doom

What is with all of the junk going on these days?  It isn’t enough that our economy is trying to tank.  Now we have a potential pandemic of some pig virus.  One party is about to have a free pass to do what they want in the Senate (please note that I don’t think it a good thing for either party to have this kind of weight to throw around).  Our...
