Grateful Blog: Day 66: I got the email today that said: Help! We need more copies of Dan Weber: Ash and Bone. Congratulations! You’ve sold enough CDs through CD Baby that our all-knowing inventory management computer wants you to know that we need more discs to satisfy anticipated demand. I LOVE that! Not because I’m making any money selling CD’s, …
