Hi, Pedro.
Can I make a suggestion?
Is there a School for the Deaf that would host a reading of your debut book in their auditorium?
They could also send a person to one of your bookshop events -- to sign in ASL.

My two cents.

Interviewed on CNN, Stephen Miller said Cheeto has "plenary powers."
After CNN posted the clip, they went back and edited those two words out.

Christopher Webb posted both clips.

Christoper Webb's account posted the original CNN video.

Then - after an "OOOPIES! moment - CNN edited those 2 words out and reposted the footage.

“I have a new book for your collection,” echoed a voice from the recessed square below. I looked down and saw Detective Owens sitting in one of the reading area’s beanbag chairs. I cursed a few things under my breath and said, “Aren’t there laws about police breaking and entering?”

June 9, 1954 - this confrontation ENDED "the Red Scare."
With lawyer Roy Cohn at his side, Senator Joe McCarthy conducted a reign of terror - 'til Joseph Welch finally asked the question: "Have you no decency, sir?"

NYC laundromats used to do the same thing... put red nail polish on some "house" quarters.
These would be given to the Super or building manager as a courtesy.

A bit of an exaggeration perhaps. 😉
But Stephen Miller's vileness looms large - no matter what height / weight he is.
