I have made no secret that I support my friends. When one of them has a book out, I usually buy it and I do review them. Why? Because we are all in this together and I know how much I could use the same (though I never insist on a squid pro quid with them).
One of my friends, Made in DNA, is having a little fund raiser to pay for a new laptop. Something about heating up to over 100 C. While my opinion of him was diminished by finding out he tested it with Minecraft, I figured I'd do a little shout out and see if he can get a few dollars from my direction.
He has three anthologies in there, but sadly not the one I'm in (that's issue #4). Mostly sci-fi and over-the-top sex. I actually have/bought all of them before, which means the money I sent him is just gravy but, as I said, every little bit helps. And if you like that type of sex, consider blowing a coffee on him.
