@adrianharley.bsky.social I see you're a North Carolina author. I just started reading a library copy of Many Drops and decided I immediately need to buy it as a gift. (Nicely done!) Is there anywhere I can buy locally in the Triad? Or do you sell directly?

For the first time in many years, I have a Windows laptop instead of an app based Chromebook. What do I need to install y'all? #adviceneeded

Dandelions can thrive anywhere, even in November. I strive to be a dandelion too.

I need to finish my other games first.
