Winter is Coming, and So’s Your Chance to Pre-Order the Book: Music of Pedro Kickstarter Campaign
Iām not going to lie; it would be devastating if we didnāt meet our goal, because even the cost of printing enough paperbacks in time for the launch party is a bit prohibitive, but not without help! Weāre looking to have at least 100 copies available at the event and to do that weāll need between 60 and 80 backers pledging $20 to $40 to our campaign. If that seems pricey, donāt worry, weāll make it worth your while!

This is the story of how I lured her to the Cuevas ways.

I consider what Iāve personally put into this book and why, what it communicates to me and what I hope it will communicate to others, and also how much I love my dad.
