Paperback Price Changes, Patreon Changes, and General Musings Wow. What a week. Or rather, what a series of weeks. Things lately have been ... chaotic. As you're about to see. Let's start with the paperback price changes. I recently was informed that due to low prices on Axtara - Banking and Finance, bookstores were no longer willing to stock it. This is because it was at a price point made almost half a decade ago, a price point which has now been punched twice—first in the general, boxerish sort of way by general inflation, and then by a sucker punch to the back due to the Trump Tariffs.

Lotta news this week, folks. Pricing changes for paperback, Patreon updates ... things are busy!
