As an author, I don't make a whole lot of money, but at the same time I need to read a lot of books to stay aware of trends and support my fellow authors. Obviously if I spend all my profits on other people's books, I'm not coming out ahead!
So: ways to read lots of indie books for cheap.

It's time for everyone's favorite chronologically unanchored holiday, The Story of the Lizard in the Leg.
Because people keep asking, the Story of The Lizard In That Dude's Leg. Some caveats:
1. This happened more than twenty years ago. There are no pictures. There was a small article in a local paper with, again, no pictures (I'm assuming that's what the producers of 9-1-1: LONE STAR found).

Severance Season 2 Episode 7 was deeply emotional, heartbreaking, disturbing, and beautiful to watch. We have been dealing with infertility for years, so my husband and I cried a lot while watching the episode. This episode really made me/us feel seen. #severance

Idk if anyone has been to a Penguin Project musical, but I highly recommend it. We went to a production of Seussical that my sister’s friend was in and it was extremely fun. Don’t think I’ve ever seen actors enjoy performing this much.
