A brief bit of site business:
This morning, I made a quick trip to a Vermont manufacturer to pick up three cases of Sox Machine pint glasses, seen above. They're a classic @billyok design available in both black and red, and they're handsome.
You may have already seen it on Patreon, but for those who haven't, the first purpose of these glasses is to thank the handful of supporters who have pledged well over the top tier on the Sox Machine Patreon over the course of the site's first 14 months back. There's now a $10/month tier simply called "Sox Machine Pint Glass," and those who have been a part of this previously imaginary level will be sent a glass next week in the color of your choice, with a coaster for your protection.
If you aren't part of this group, and if you aren't on Patreon, here's the deal:
*Those who join or upgrade to the $10 tier will receive a pint glass in the mail after their second month/payment at the tier.
*Those who are interested in acquiring a pint glass without supporting at the $10 tier ... stay tuned. After all the requisite shipments to Sox Machine supporters are out the door, I'll be exploring site storefront options.
For more information about contributing to Sox Machine, visit your local library the Sox Machine Patreon page. As always, thanks for reading, listening and supporting.
