Hi nerds,

I told you in our last post about our new e-commerce book shopping option, and with that comes discount codes! I am happy to revamp our paid member benefits.

At $5 a month at our Supporter level, you now will get 10% off on all in-store and online shopping, both on books and merch.

At $12 a month at our Sustaining Member level, you now will get 20% off on all in-store and online shopping, both on books and merch.

If you've been thinking about upgrading to paid, even at $5 a month, I hope this gives ya the nudge to do.

There are somehow 5,702 people subscribed to this newsletter. If even 100 of you subscribed at $5 a month, we'd be able to commit a meaningful chunk of change every month to donate to the causes we care about, expand our in-store programming, throw more free events while still paying our staff to work them, and provide our shop dog Maggie with unlimited treats.

At the end of the weekend, 9/20, I will be emailing out the new discount codes to all paid members at both tiers. Consider this a membership drive baby.

While I have you, I'd love to tell you about a very cool pre-order campaign we are participating in for Buzzard by Inez Ray. Not only should Buzzard being our book club pick for November be enough to get you to pre-order, but now the publisher is donating a portion of every pre-order we generate before 9/27 to a local reproductive rights organization, the Abortion Fund of Arizona. Order the book here for pickup or to be shipped to you if you're in the US.

That's it for me today! Love you! Mean it!
