A POEM FOR FRANK O'HARA by Jon Cone
I stand with Yasmin Williams. I know the fascists running are government are malicious, cruel people. But something about this story hurts so, so much. To organize a claque against an artist you are presenting?!? An artist who kept her commitment to perform when others didn't? I am so sad.

Republican impersonation I have ever seen, I was even getting upset thinking this was real. Love it!
When I was a buyer at a large indie, my rule of thumb was:
1 preorder: huh, let me take a closer look at this one
2 preorders: we need to stock this book
3 preorders: we should order enough to face this out
4+ preorders: this should be on front-of-store display
I love this. β€οΈ Thank you.

It's a small note at the end of the story. I hope she talks more about her experiences with that.
