I love it. A friend of mine spotted some of my books for sale . . . at this car wash! Obviously, the car wash owners are really good sports.

Holiday Meats: Your Source for Creative Literary Enjoyment

This "Holiday Meats" insert from New Seasons Market is in today's Oregonian. Unable to resist its charms ("Look, there's ham, lamb, ooh— crab!"), I leafed through and was surprised to find this inside (below).
Smirk if you must, but I do offer prime cuts of locally-harvested prose inside The Pocket Guide to Games. And given its handy size, the contents can fit nicely in a sandwich. Or bring it by my deli counter; we'll slice it thin and lay the book out with an attractive assortment of cheese and crackers. (Need a non-meat gift idea? Try the Annoy-a-tron.)
