Labor of love

Emails are the bane of my existence. I am always behind. But this one, from a vendor up in Moab who was selling my books and zines, caught my eye. The email informed me that because of “sluggish sales” they would no longer be selling my products. I was caught off guard – my books and zines had been selling decently there – so I fired back an email explaining my policy.
I don’t actually depend on the revenue at small independent shops – I make most of my money off internet sales – but it’s important for me to have my work available there. It’s about the love of sharing art and storytelling, not money.
