A letter I wrote to @gluesenkampperez.house.gov and submitted on her website this morning. I tweaked the letter a bit to send it to Senators Murray and Cantwell as well.

Considering a possible change of pen name, at least for my adult manuscripts.
Ricky Barca would still be a YA writer, but my adult books like the Finn Cooper Mysteries could be published as Mark Baħari.
Thoughts?

#SpotifyWrapped sadly doesn’t include ChronoWulf cause Spotify dropped most of Koda’s songs. But all my other faves, well represented.
Big surprises: Uriah Heep making my top 5 (I listened to a bunch of their albums) and “The Chain” not being my top song, but for “Maldito Duende,” ¡viva España!
