Hey, Folks!

 

I cannot believe how quickly October has swept by this year! I mean, yes, I know there is still 11 days left in the month, but it appears to me that the days are rocketing by me. This feeling is partially caused by the fact that Diamond Distributors has moved up their date for initial orders a whole week which is still baking my noodle. I mean, I’m on top of it unlike last month when I blew the deadline, but it is still screwing up my schedule…lol. I just got the last of my consumer Previews order forms in yesterday and I have to futz around tog e the information into my spread sheets, but at least I got them before the due date for my orders. I need to get back into my groove so that my weekly Diamond initial order entry doesn’t look like Scarlet fleeing Atlanta!

 

Can I just say how great it is to be married? Those of you who have known me for years can truly realize what an incredible thing that is to hear from me. I mean, I spent years saying that I would never get married and that the married life was not for me. How wrong I was! Even though our marriage plans were fast forwarded somewhat due to everything happening politically in this country, I still can’t believe how happy Hillman makes me and how much I love being part of a larger whole. I can honestly say that I can’t wait for the future and am very muchly looking forward to spending the rest of my life with him. By the way, we have picked out a venue for our Big Wedding next year and also have also chosen the official date as 9/9/23! More information as it becomes available…😊

 

Just a couple of notes for the week…don’t forget that we are still running our Spooky Halloween Hard Cover/Trade Paperback sale through the end of the month. We have many scary books on the sale rack and they are all discounted at 25% off cover price! Also, please remember that we will be participating in the Boos & Bikes trunk or treat event in the Colonial Village parking lot on Saturday! The event will take place between 5-7pm and will include not only plenty of candy giveaways, but also comic book giveaways and an appearance by the Monarch Avengers cosplayers for photos! Please stop by with the kids and say “hi” while they get their fill of super heroes and candy!

 

I hope that everyone has a great weekend and enjoys what may be our last foray into 70 degree temperatures! Both Hillman and I will be joining Brian here on Saturday afternoon so I hope to you then!
