AUCTION FOR BUTT & JOINT PROTECTOR
This is a special 2-week charitable auction. One of my dearest writing buddies is unable to work due to rheumatoid arthritis and his wife has an advanced cancer that has spread to several organs. They’re having a hard time of it.
Every penny of the auction (and proceeds from shafts/extensions to complete it) goes to Dubhghlas & Mrs. Kraus.
Dub Kraus is old school. Won’t ask for help. He’d rather punch you in the nose than accept a dollar he didn’t “earn.” But I’m here to tell him about the economy of love. He’s touched so many of us with his grumbly humor, wit, and grace, he’s due all our hearts can unload on him. His wife especially, as I’m sure he’d be the first to call her his better half. Please help me show him that we all know where he’s coming from, we all respect a man with principles, and we all know that the humblest and strongest among us deserve a lift when they walk through the deepest of valleys.
If you’re into dark fiction told in a campfire voice, buy and share his WORK
If you’d like to donate to the GoFundMe page set up by his editor for his fans, please find it HERE
And if you’d like a medium-firm hitting butt that’ll steal every eyeball in the pool hall, bid on ROOSTER like you intend to win.
Thank you, my friends. I am grateful for you. God love you.

A word about shafts:
I build shafts out of ten species and carbon fiber. My advice is this: if you have a shaft you love to use, buy this butt to match that shaft. If you’ve heard of a famous shaft that you’d like to try, buy that shaft to match this butt.
However, if you’re into the art of it and want to have fun, try something new, and make your Character Cue fully badass, consider one of my ten species or carbon fiber with a like-wood decorative ring.
