I wasn’t sure at first whether to capitalize ‘until’ in the title. Because it can be a preposition or a conjuction. A preposition doesn’t get capitalized unless it is the first or last word in a title and/or subtitle. A conjuction…well, my friend–that sh*t gets capitalized like a mofo.

More important to me than money right now is sustaining an actually career in bookselling. I’m working on another one now. Something you can do that will go a lot farther than the few cents I get in paperback royalties when you order one of those:
