Happy Friday, Fug Nation! Hope you have a wonderful weekend planned. If you are looking for something to read, as ever, I suggest our new book, The Royal We (just today, one of you said to me, “I had no idea you had a new book out!” so forgive us for continuing to plug it), the e-book price of which is (I think) about to go up. You can get it for your Kindle here, or click on the previous link for all kinds of buying info — get on in there and get your deal!
