A project I backed from @shop.zandraillustration.com delivered and my pins are SO CUTE. The other two pins already went to my partner and I can’t find them now but they were equally cute (cats with gourds).

Why is it so NOISY? I don't even CARE that much, because I already have the book preordered.
I have finished fiction (favorite shelves and TBR shelf) and can now move on to nonfiction. I did not anticipate the scope of this project 😅
This map is wild; the big population centers are not a surprise, but the dots with no city names? Those are hella conservative areas. I would also not call Fort Smith or Jonesboro bastions of progressive thought. But they had rallies. Remember: this is only REGISTERED events.
