It feels as if I’m shaking up pretty much every aspect of my life. One part of that is my ongoing efforts in Reducing My Amzn Footprint.
The following Digital Gryphon titles (Boutique books for Unique readers) are being discontinued from Amzn later this month. Exactly where and in what form(s) they’ll be available in the future has yet to be finalized.
They are all Printed On Demand so there’s no old stock to have to sell off, but I’ve marked them all down for the next few weeks.
Moving On Poetic Prose by Jason Beilchick
was US$12.95, NOW US$9.99

Of his work he says:
“everything i have written tells a story of who i am; if you read these poems and you find they hurt your feelings that wasn’t my intention.”

A collection of poetry and poetic prose composed during the 1970s when the author was in his 20s. It is a reflection of the times, while also timeless commentary on life, love and sex.
