"This could really doom the sales of my children’s book “I Am Curious Anteater” in Sweden."

Yellow and pink make orange, right?

Rename the book "A Glockenspiel Orange".

Yeah.
Of course, having a man portable teleFRAG for dealing with moles in the yard would be fun too.

I’m getting pretty good at thinking up names for books.

The problem is all that stuff that has to go into it after that.

What did I miss?

Have you taken up writing? I thought you just ran a money printing press.

I was going to write a book about my travels in Asia, but never got started. I guess one is either is a writer, or is not.

"I guess one is either is a writer, or is not."

Wrong. Everyone is a writer, (potentially).

One either writes, or one does not. That's what makes the difference.

Write your book. Re-writing can be done at any time.

Everyone’s writing can be improved, too.

Write it first. Improve it later.

.

Besides, the act of writing, like any exercise, improves your ability to do it. As John Wayne said, “Nobody can say anything about our wrists!”

Unlike California. It’s The Cereal State. The Land of Fruits, Nuts and Flakes.

You should have seen San Francisco on Sunday. Or better not. It's become a bit more normal on weekdays. But I will be be outtahere before the next weekend sweeps ashore.
