    Llew Kinst has done all my covers since the first book in 1987.

    Nothing. No duty. No taxes. No nothing. It's below the $150 threshold they use at Canada Post. Just treated like any kind of regular mail. I love the post office compared to Fed Ex or UPS or, God forbid, DHL.

    Oddly enough they are also the lowest priced carrier -- good to know. This is much better service than in October, as well. I have some media mail ones in the US travel across the country in 2 days -- amazing! Others may take weeks.

    USPS has sped up dramatically since after the US election. I'm getting stuff in 2-3 days that has a service standard of 7-10 days. No comment on why that is.

    I suspect they relaxed their Covid regulations (and/or absences due to Covid) -- though they still require masks in the Indianapolis lobbies.

    I am currently totally caught up on all orders and comp books to contributors. Thanks to all of you for your indulgence. It has been a fun project and the result should easily survive the test of time, which is a good thing -- since I am much older than I was in 1988 when I self-published my first book.
