✨🧠Brainstorming help? The last sale sold out

✨🧠Brainstorming help? The last sale sold out in 3 minutes. Don’t get me wrong- I am thankful and very lucky! I've been doing this a while, but this last sale was particularly quick. I’m not bringing this up to humble brag, I’m asking because I am only recently accepting it as a problem. People who move slower don’t stand a chance against people who know the ropes amd have nimble fingers. It’s not altogether equitable and it would be nice for more people to have access to work if they want it. It leads to frustration and anger for many people and although people can contact me to commission something, I am often behind in the studio and sometimes the original piece is what really made their hearts go thump. I can only make so much, esp these days. 🎫🎟️🎫🎟️🎫🎟️ So…has anyone ever tried a lottery system for access? For example, people could get on a mailing list and then I could give access to the sale for batches of 5 people in 10 minute increments or something. I would like to find an app or process that doesn’t create an exponential amount of work on the backend. Any thoughts/comments/discussions are welcome! Thanks in advance! Next sale is Monday, Nov 30, 12 noon EST.

FREE Trump Ostraka Risograph w/purchase of 9x9 Multiplication Table Riso. I hope that tomorrow we can say that this print and millions of voters worked to soundly defeat the Criminal in the WH. Winning by a landslide will check his courtroom circus and help save lives. I'm text banking today and am mildly hopefully after listening to the Daily today. The link to the 9x9 print is in my bio and you can read more about ancient democracy and pottery shards there. Long live our Democratic Republic and let's get rid of the electoral college and the filibuster while we are at it. #kidsposter #math #potteryispolitical #multiplicationtable #bidenharris2020

I need your voice. This morning the @maine_crafts_association published an essay I wrote about how my identity is inextricable from politics and politics is inextricable from craft. It's part of a series where Maine craftspeople write from a personal space. Please go give them some love and support for giving me a platform. Please comment on the MCA post, if you feel moved to. Read the essay in the link in my bio. Thanks!! #mainecraft #madeinmaine Also, sale today at noon EDT!
