Signal Boosting a call for assistance

A couple of months ago, I reviewed Saladin Ahmed's Throne of the Crescent Moon, which was amazing, and you should (if you haven't already) read it. Or read it again. Today, he posted this: http://www.saladinahmed.com/wordpress/pulp-pastiche-and-a-plea-for-patrons/

You should go and take a look.
