No precipitation of the other sort, either.

Early clouds, all gone now. We're supposed to have clear skies until Thursday, and then three days of scattered snow showers. Fortunately, it's still cold, but the sun is bright enough melt the snow anyway. We've still got a few inches left here, but most of it's gone off the mountain slopes already.

No precipitation of the other sort, either. Normally we'd make at least a few sales over the long weekend and into these early days of the next week that now get commercial name. Cyber Monday today, and I'm sure the corporations are doing a booming business, but so far, we have not had a single sale. Then again, we haven't brought in anywhere nearly enough sales all year. It's grim. And I don't know what more I can do.

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 [knee slightly better, but still not functional], 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.
