Well, it has to be good merchandise, too. My coffee mugs logo washes off—easily. The infamous R publishing person said hers was ok and she was going to send it to me, but, of course, it never came. So I have a mug I don’t use as I lose part of the design if I do. I do enjoy mugs and t shirts and stuff though. I drink a lot of coffee. BTW, whatever happened to the coffee? Just askin’?
You know, Nathan, I, and I assume your other fans, do not expect you to do everything. You have enough on your plate and we just like good books. That is your contribution to our comfort. I really, really don’t care about the d___ mug. It was just part of a pattern we should have paid attention to, but didn’t. Mea culpa. Maybe if I had complained, but that does not seem right either. sigh. As far as the coffee goes, you are busy. Forget the darned coffee. It is a minor distraction you don’t need at this time. I am kind of sorry I asked.
I’m with memline on mugs and coffee. In fact, I recently quit drinking coffee and tea after discovering that they are migraine triggers for me; so I wouldn’t buy either item anyway.
My opinion is: Don’t get distracted with merchandise.
My ‘Trust Lois’ shirt is one of my prized possessions but I’m with the others, no need to worry about merch really. You got plenty of other things worthy of your time and energy.
Indeed – the merch is something of a distraction. Maybe once the flurry of fun dies down, it’ll be worth looking at again. Maybe you’ll be able to find someone who can do it for you.
The thing about your websites is not so much that you have so many, but that they’re not as inter-discoverable as I might like. However, that’s really something that might be better put off to discuss with your web mistress later, again after the fun dies down some.

Thanks for the feedback, Memline.
I need to check in with them. I lost track while they were waiting for some samples from Costa Rica … I need to follow-up. 🙂

I agree with the others.
While I still do want to purchase some merch eventually, I think that you and we are best served by your focusing on getting content out there.
