Do you want to boycott ABC, FCC, & Nexstar? Turn off your TV and go to your public library and check out books and DVDs. Or go to your public libraries digital service and get e-books and movies for download and streaming.

SUPPORT PUBLIC LIBRARIES by using public libraries. Surge their numbers! 📚💙

I’m delighted by how my Audible membership introduces me to great authors. I listened to my first book by Australian author, J.P. Pomare, “Trapdoor.” It was an excellent locked-room mystery!
