My wife keeps offering to help me sell my books. Unfortunately, she's from a press-printing background, and wants to print my books to try to sell them to local bookstores (which, I keep reminding her, don't exist around here anymore). If she can't sell physical product to a physical store, she can't think of any other way to help me (that she's willing to do). So, she goes to bed, and I continue to write.
