“Writing is hard work. A clear sentence is no accident. Very few sentences come out right the first time, or even the third time. Remember this in moments of despair. If you find that writing is hard, it’s because it is hard.”

Oh hey, a new scam! This email purports to be from the “Chief Merchandising Officer” of Barnes & Noble, telling me that he’s interested in stocking my books in physical stores, for a mere $1000 up front costs!

Gosh.

Not sure what you’re getting at. Swing states, which also voted for Trump, are not in your list. They are getting what they voted for
