This is your friendly reminder to seek out local bookstores for the sake of your own pocket AND in support of local small businesses!
I just went to the small independent bookstore in my town, and my favorite thing about them is that they buy used books AND you can get either cash or store credit for that!
I have sold SO many books that I don’t plan on rereading. I’ll typically keep my all time favs and then sell whatever I’m done with or what ever I didn’t like. BUT THE POINT IS that this has allowed me to accrue store credit to buy MORE books. Like just the other day I bought Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros. WHICH WAS LISTED AT 30 DOLLARS HOLY SHIT. And I did not spend a dime.
So, rather than buying books at large bookstores like B&N, consider supporting your local small businesses. It keeps them open! And it may also save you money!

Now, I’m not a master and this is a holiday gift, but this bit here of a scarf, not even the length of my hand, took me two hours. So, look at this picture anytime you argue with an independent artist about the worth of their creation that came from their soul.

Any input is appreciated for sure. I've only ever dealt with plastic plants and painted gravel - I'm completely in the dark here. I'll mark down "aragonite sand" in specific to see if my local pet shops have it.

The Game Reserve Sign
What's this? Not a costume or creature?! Nay! 'Tis a sign! (With a creature on it)
Surprise, we are both experienced sign makers as well!
We made this hanging, tavern-style sign for our local game store, The Game Reserve, featuring their existing artwork!

A fun and sexy romp with a neat adventuring party. I hope it gets another volume! Pick one up at your local independent comic shop. It's on Bookshop org but temporarily out of stock. Give it a look!
