The order code promo has closed...please stop calling. (Well, there weren't a LOT of callers. But you get the idea.)
Spartan mothers used to tell their sons before battle to "Come back with your shield or on it," and that's how @jerrybrennan.bsky.social is feeling about the books he bought for Joe Peterson's book launch.
Old friends and new...we're getting ready for the FRANK BUCK launch party! Bill Hillmann's reading, and we'll have amazing spring titles by Becky Wills and @saralippmann ...and of course our main event, Joe Peterson! Jimmy's Woodlawn Tap, 1172 E 55th St in Chicago, Sat. June 6th from 3-5...be there!
Wait, no, he doesn't want to come back WITH the books...that would mean the launch was a massive failure. But you get the idea.
This Saturday. 3-5. Woodlawn Tap. 1172 E 55th St. Chicago. IL. USA. Earth. Be there.
Essential reading from @rebeccamakkai.bsky.social. Spoiler alert: while it is far from the only factor at play, there is a LOT of randomness in prize judging. (Just like in publishing!)
