Disclosure

This fan website / blog is not primarily financially driven. I started it in 2015 to show my utter appreciation and love for Ray Bradbury and his world view as I read it from his wonderful writings.

Regardless, beginning December 1, 2009, the FTC requires bloggers to disclose whenever there could be hidden interests or unspoken biases related to recommendations.  So here goes…

First: I am heavily invested in my family’s financial well-being.  I guess I always will be.

Second: Per the FTC rules, if I interview someone and they grab the bill for lunch, I would need to disclose this. Ditto if I use an Amazon link that gets me 40 cents instead of an Amazon link that gets me 4 cents. If someone gives me a comfy t-shirt with a logo and I wear it in a photo, same deal. Disclaimers all over the place. This would be tedious for me and even more tedious for readers. But rules are rules. To protect myself (in “the world’s best guinea pig” Tim Ferriss fashion) and preserve your reading experience, please assume that, for every link and product I use, the following all hold true:
