From now through the end of the year, I’m offering autographed copies (if you wish) of the book Tales from Jevlir for just $5.00 shipped. That’s right! Just $5, + sales tax if you live in Florida.

If you’ve been around any of my blogs for long you already know that I love Andrew Greeley, and especially the Father/Bishop Blackie mysteries.
