I have two things currently being auctioned off to help a couple of people out.
The first, a copy of the dead tree edition of Hereville with a sketch in it, is currently going for $40. That auction closes at midnight tonight.
The second, the original art to a Muppet Star Wars health care political cartoon, has a current high bid of $200. There are two days left to bid on that one.
I’m pretty pleased with how both these auctions are going — I was afraid they’d both sell for, like, $10, which would have been dead embarrassing.
_Railsea_ by China Mieville has ampersands as part of the story-- both text and symbolism. A genuinely weird surrealist novel.
