Attempting Local was completely self-published. I hired an editor, a book cover designer, and an interior book designer. On top of that, it took over three years of dedication to ensure the novel would be fully realized. And I'm still creating the Attempting Local Podcast.

It was tough to justify continuing the podcast once the book was published, but the messages I receive from listeners around the world demonstrate my work is not quite done.

Similar to crafting the book, the podcast takes a lot of time. So if you'd like to show your appreciation, feel free to make a one-time donation.

Funds will go to purchasing copies of Attempting Local (hopefully to entice bookstore owners and libraries to shelve them,) equipment for the podcast, and will ensure that I can continue allocating time to this podcast. Thank you for contributing; thank you for listening or reading; and thank you for taking the time.

I truly hope the book and podcast have made some impact in your life.
