OK, but hear me out. Maybe the computational density enabling AI has actually just drawn data out of an adjacent universe where that book actually was written. I like the idea that there's a whole other batch of books by my favorite authors that's just a rotation away.

So SOOOO glad to hear you say that!!

On our way in!!

My friend, I hope you know, that if ever the darkness comes that close again, that we can find enough people to take turns sitting by your side, reading or just holding your hand. We'll line em up for a mile or two from your door. You are precious.

Do deals like that hit the authors' pockets? Or is the discount funded out of marketing and distribution dollars? Asking because I've been in a situation like this before where I'd definitely get a book anyway.

I assume since you're plugging it the answer is no?

My friend, I'm sure you wouldn't say so, but you absolutely belong in that group.
