I'm gonna be real with everyone: Given the choice, I'd rather you buy my books from just about ANYWHERE other than Amazon. That's always been the case. I'm Canadian. Buy your ebooks from Kobo. It will make me even happier.

Book two of the Victorian Faerie Tales, ROSEMARY & THYME, is in the process of being written... and chapter one is already available to beta-chapter tier patrons on the Patreon! (Everyone else still gets to hear me tell weird D&D stories on Discord.) www.patreon.com/c/atwater_au...

Season 2 of Andor has a lot to live up to. S1 was the best TV I ever saw*. I hope to god they don't drop the ball now. The bar is very high. *You may not have liked it. Please don't piss on my circus by posting so.
