If you want a Commonwealth enamel pin from my Galactic Cold War series, I'm planning on taking them off sale at the end of the year. I've dropped the price to just $10 to help move through the remaining stock, so grab 'em while supplies last. cottonbureau.com/p/XCY6ZG/pin...

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
