As we're all about to spend a lot more time indoors, I've decided to throw in a FREE BOOK BONUS for W&B patrons. Everyone who becomes an $8+ 'Manuscript' level supporter before March 31, and maintains that support through June, will get a signed copy of my next novel THE TEMPUS PROJECT.
Yes, that includes shipping; no, it doesn't account for postal services collapsing because of C-19, but whaddayagonnado 😅
If you're already a Manuscript supporter, you're already on the list and don't need to do anything extra. If you're already a supporter on a lower pledge level, just bump it up to Manuscript and I'll add you to the list. Easy!
