HOW DO BOOKS GET DISCOVERED?

This morning I made a discovery about how books get discovered. As a newbie, I have a 2% chance. That's what the link shows. Way to go - only 98% is left to complete the journey. https://www.goodreads.com/blog/show/3...

GRAPHICS FOR YOU - THE BOOKLOVER

Browsing my computer archives I discovered a treasure chest created by my hands - plenty of graphics related to reading, books, literature, libraries, children, parenting, etc.
Today I'll start sharing them with you on my blog. Despite the busy schedule I have, I will find the time to post the images often. Come to visit - you may like them.
NOTE: All these graphics are for you, the mighty reader - to save, to keep, to share - free of charge.

SATIRE IS DEAD, HUMOUR IS NEXT

This morning I had a phone call.
The news was unpleasant.
The board of the big charity I wanted to partner with rejected my offer.
A few days ago they seemed to be very excited working with FONTREAL, my publishing company.
Both entities dealt with children, therefore the match was perfect.
The rejection came because they found a cartoon on my company's FB page.
I was the creator of the cartoon.
And the image, according to them, was not politically correct.
I posted the image here.
Please take my question seriously - freedom of speech matters.
Here is the question: Is there room for humour in our unprecedented times?
