Think AaN has a working - mobile, foldable, collapsable bookshop that fits in the trunk of the car. Ready for pop-ups, farm markets and maker trunk shows in parking lots. The signage display area on the right can go on the left, depending on which way the wind needs to be blocked.

Dear author. Thank you for the slightly condescending passive aggressive reply to my email. I will take it under consideration next time you submit something.

now reading - submission stories lots of submission stories. (The Delaney book was interesting if more a novella than a novel but that was its label back in the 60s. novellas hadn’t been invented yet, nor really doorstoppers like we have now)

Cover to the book: an arabian/asian architectually inspired city stronghold sits on a dusky desert mountainside. A large gray spaceship is tethered to it by cables. At the bottom an exotic caravan is kicking up dust. All oranges and red under a mauve/blue sky.

UPS, whom I passionately dislike, has my book order literally 2 blocks away (4:43pm) on the map. I will probably not see the boxes until 7pm. Let's time it shall we.
