Going on in C'naw-awn

Aleichem Shulem! Cannabis Chassidis Author Yoseph Leib is back in Israel, selling copies to individuals (for 80 shekels) and bookstores (for 100), and is available for appearances and bookings anywhere in Israel through June. To arrange to have him speak at your local bookstore, University, bar or street corner, just Email Atzmos Press at Zakikfkififim@gmail.com. He'll be happy to run over with books in his bag to answer questions and amuse children. Just don't ask him if he has any weed, because he doesn't. Do you? No? Oh. Ok.

U.S. bookings from June on outwards are arrangeable now; ask me soon, before I make other plans. Love!

I'm doing a very unsophisticated thing, distributing it to bookstores personally for the first few months, before I have someone else make it all production liney. Events in NY and other places will be posted here as soon as they are booked.

If you have a bookstore or other venue for bookselling to reccomend, let me know;
and if you want to host a learning in your community, e-mail away, because i'm in the city for another little bit. We'll be doing a thing at the Yippie Cafe in New York, and the Moishe House in Philadelphia, in October.

As always
