Why buy here

The files are yours

No DRM. Read on a tablet, a phone, a laptop, or print them out. Put them on the next device you own in six years.

Illustrators get royalties

Named on the cover and paid a share, not a flat fee. Buying direct is what makes that arithmetic work.

Content notes on everything

Grief, worry, peril, a dead pet — listed at the bottom of every book page, so bedtime holds no surprises.

Free, and no email required

Take these whether you buy anything or not.
