Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

this starts in ~12 hours! get ready! my goal is to make $500 with this. that's only 25 of y'all paying for it. less if folks leave tips ✨

mine has all this and also CDs, DVDs and board games. they've got a 3D printer patrons can use and one of the branches has a recording studio.

My books “Winner Takes All” and “Refilling The Well” are in a group #BlackFriday sale on Itch.io! 📚 🛒

You can either buy a BIG bundle featuring every book: itch.io/b/3378/black...

I don't care where you buy your books that's not Amazon. Kobo and Apple both offer 70% royalties to authors; Itch lets you pick your own percentage. Just consider, when an author is available somewhere other than Amazon, buying it there. It keeps other retailers alive.

What readers say about Refilling The Well: With a world fueled by our phones and the small worlds inside of them, "Refilling The Well" provides a journey of becoming overwhelmed with the systems in place to keep us hooked and wanting more, from our relationships, our friends and our lives, to putting the screen down and becoming present in the moment and to not give into the hustle hype that consumes most of the world we live in. - M. Silver, Goodreads

Refilling The Well Itch.io: https://clarislamauthor.itch.io/refilling-the-well All other retailers: https://books2read.com/u/bp20yW Available in paperback & ebook The cover of Refilling The Well by Claris Lam is shown on the image.
