Discount biography

Today there’s a Kindle deal on the biography Sparky: The Life and Art of Charles Schulz, a mere $1.99.

Amazon shipping is running slow at the moment, overwhelmed with orders from those of us trying not to leave their homes… but Kindle and other digital deliveries are going smoothly.

I do hope everyone’s doing well during the current challenges. We’re hunkered down here, but I’m getting work done on a project that will be of interest to you blog readers. The Schulz Museum is closed for the nonce, as are so many other things.

Please stay hunkered down yourself, to the extent that you can… but also look out for your local businesses. We’re getting take-out meals from locally-owned restaurants, and I’ve bought some store credit from my comic shop, prepaying for my comics for months to come to help make sure that they’ll still be around in the months to come.

Take care of yourselves and others. It’s a great time to show how good we can be.
