Hi, this is Andrew and Rosecrans from The Morning News. We’re trying to get better about doing this, but we just wanted to take a moment to thank our Sustaining Members for their generosity in making the TMN Headlines and the Tournament of Books possible. And if you’re not already a Member, we’d like to take a moment to ask you to consider becoming one or making a one-time donation.

Why are we asking for your help? Simply put, we’re a small shop and the ToB and TMN are major endeavors that take a good deal of time—and yes, money—to produce. With all the changes over the past couple of years in online advertising (with good reason!), we’re no longer able to sustain TMN and the ToB on ad revenue alone. (To find out more about why we’re asking for your support, please read this note.)

Another way you can support the Tournament of Books and The Morning News is by shopping at the TMN Store, where you can find all manner of TMN and Rooster shirts, totes, and mugs. (Plus: Members get 50 percent off all items!)

Finally, if you have any questions about membership, donations, or anything else, please don’re hesitate to contact us directly.

Thank you for your time!
