This is kind of like Toy Story. But for books, which are better than toys anyway. A Canadian couple and a host of volunteers spent days and nights painstakingly ordering bookshelves in their Toronto bookstore to create a frame-by-frame, stop-motion movie about what happens when they go home from work. The story is beautiful and mesmerizing and the ending? We couldn’t agree more. Check it out.

Warning: G/K43 Forum Digital Store Selling Illegal Copies of Merriam Press PDF Files!
The G/K43 Forum web site is illegally selling copies of PDFs that were purchased from the Merriam Press. Every single PDF they are selling through their Digital Store is a Merriam Press-created PDF. They are even selling PDFs of books I have published that are copyrighted by the author or myself. I have sent a private message to the owner of the web site, but I expect it to do no good. If anyone who is a customer of mine is a member of this web site, complain to them, post messages about the illegal methods they are using to line his pockets at my expense. Anyone can buy their own original copies, scan them and sell copies of the same items I sell PDFs of, but don't buy copies of my material and sell them.And NO ONE can sell PDFs or any kind of copies of the books I have published and are copyrighted by my authors or myself. Note the warning at the top of this page!
