I worked on Ancestor Trouble as a book for seven years, and during that time friends and readers often said they couldn’t wait to order a copy. Well, now’s your chance! Ordering early is one of the best ways you can support a writer’s work, mine or anyone’s, because it establishes interest as people making decisions are trying to decide how much interest there will be. Thanks for your belief in the book and me over all this time. Link in bio!
Partial container garden update: blackberries (baby cakes), alpine strawberries (mignonette), blueberries (top hat), more blueberries (sunshine blue), calamondin bloom, tomato in need of toning (variety unknown), tomato that burst from a seed that somehow survived the winter in a crack in the concrete.
Here’s the full glorious cover of Ancestor Trouble (@atrandombooks, March 2022), in case you missed yesterday’s reveal! Details about the design, and the book, at @literaryhub. Link in bio.
