"Intermission is a good time to get to know fellow members of the captive audience. You might as well see what’s really on everyone’s mind. Not memes and mantras, but the human beings behind the screens."

Nice! Thx for the suggestion, so many of the procedurals on Britbox are bleak and dark.

I liked the Dangerous series with Peter Davison as a kind detective inspector.

Amazon.com: Applied Leverage (The Origin Key Series Book 1) eBook : Sher, Aaron: Kindle Store Amazon.com: Applied Leverage (The Origin Key Series Book 1) eBook : Sher, Aaron: Kindle Store

Occurs to me that I should probably post this here. This is my debut urban fantasy novel, Applied Leverage; it's intended to be the first book in a series, but it stands alone just fine. It's on Kindle Unlimited, Kindle, and paperback; audio coming soon. a.co/d/2NBvyWI

I am thankful every single day I have yoga in all its forms to help me on the battlefield of life.

This isn’t a post to get you into a yoga class, but it is an invitation to reflect on how we can realign our collective internal and external struggles in a way to make positive and lasting change.

Reminder that while bookshop.org is amazing and you should be directing your online book sales there, I'll echo others and say that for small publishers, one of the most impactful things you can do is buy directly from our website, putting money in our bank account today for operations.
