I bought a t-shirt! My younger son has threatened to have me committed and has definitely reminded me that he has a 50% vote on what my nursing home will be if I ever buy another mug, but I can always buy him and his older brother a t-shirt. I just have to get them to choose a color. (Probably black, but I want to wait and confirm that.)

I have nothing but sympathy. My second and third books were tied up with an incompetent publisher for nearly three years, and a new publisher got them out just in time for the 2009 crash. Things can be even worse: an acquaintance was putting out her biggest book yet, and had a big publicity blitz ready to go…scheduled for September 12, 2001. (Speaking from said experience, just keep the hype going. People may have money issues right now, but they won’t always, and they just need regular reminders.)
