Fun email sign-offs you can use instead of "Warm regards": - "Good night sweet prince" - "Parting is such sweet sorrow" - "I am gone forever" - "Forever and forever farewell, Brutus. / If we do meet again, we'll smile indeed; / If not, ’tis true this parting was well made."

I need your help. It has been pointed out that my hard-working bicycle does not have a name, a shocking state of affairs. Suggestions? Bonus points for a literary association like Charles Bikeowski or Chain Austen.

Happy book release day to SATELLITE LOVE and our very own staffer @genki_ferguson! It's a fabulous debut, evocative and thought-provoking and unexpected, and we'd be recommending it even if we didn't know the author. And yes, we do have signed copies!
