All the rest is work.

Lots of clouds today; supposed to be snow after 5 PM this evening, continuing overnight.  Fingers crossed that they're right.

I'm so glad yesterday's over. I didn't realize yesterday how much I wanted it to be behind us, but every year, it gets heavier, and every year, we do less for it. We had a nice meal last night; that's it. All the rest was work. All of the rest is work, today, and over the next two days, and every day thereafter between now and Christmas, presumably.

Because we're still not bringing in anywhere nearly enough sales. It's grim.

Taking our images off both Twitter accounts has destroyed our site traffic, from hundreds of human hits a day to nothing but crawlers and bots. And we can't afford that. I'm sure our stance on Palestine has hurt us, too, but there's nothing we can do about that; we are Indigenous peoples whose ancestors were slaughtered in genocides and if we cannot do the minimum right thing in the face of a brutal genocide now, what would that make us? 

So apparently, that means pushing sales all the harder. I figure if I can bring in at least $6K in sales between now and year's end to cover tax prepayments, we'll be in halfway decent shape. But that's not looking likely, given how slow business is, and of course, with my illness worsening, the combined stress and the added workload are not helping. And I really need help. As always, all the links are listed below, and sales are the most important:

• Sales here; 
• Testimonials here; 
• Amazon wishlist here (liquid soaps are priority now [or Amazon cards, and I can order them myself]); 
• Patreon here;
• Ko-fi here.

There's lots of fabulous work on the site, and there will be much, much more in the weeks to come. The way this year has gone, things will still be grim for a good while and the holidays will be here before you know it, so please share all of the links.
