There are *hundreds and hundreds* of people buying these. Last year I suggested we skip AWP for one year, and everyone use that money to buy books from exhibitors. It would absolutely mean a significant increase in revenue for many many presses.

Hope you are all prepared for this to turn into an Anna Brownell Jameson and Jane Johnston Schoolcraft stan account until my book comes out.
