Sitting at a pizzeria in Amalfi, I smile at the camera while holding a slice of Margherita pizza.

I'm wearing a white shirt, and in front of me is a full pizza with melted mozzarella and fresh basil on a golden crust.

A glass of fresh lemon juice with a striped straw sits beside it.

Above me, a lush lemon tree with bright yellow lemons creates a beautiful canopy, adding to the charming and relaxed atmosphere of this Italian outdoor dining spot.

In the background, other diners enjoy their meals in the cozy courtyard.

They say the best pizza is found in Italy.

But eating a Margherita under a lemon tree in Amalfi?

That's something else.

A moment so perfect it feels almost clichΓ©, except when you take the first bite, and suddenly, you get it...

Reminder that booksellers & publishers are and always have been on the front lines of battles against censorship. They have fought for your right to read and write and express yourself. Support that fight. Keep bookshops like this alive. Give back:

I went to a bookstore and walked away with these. 😊

The seller, β€˜You must REALLY love books!’

I replied, β€˜I do, but I’m also testing the Butterfly Effect.πŸ¦‹ Maybe by buying these, the universe will nudge a few more people to discover my book.’ πŸ™ ⬇️
