2019 was a tough time for me personally after a family bereavement, and while I updated every month, I didn’t consume a lot of new stuff! I really need your help to update the site – though I am adding bits and pieces all of the time when I remember them.
Please submit! Either by that link or by email to isfmdatabase@gmail.com. Thanks, friends!
Donation link
Hey friends!
Unfortunately the costs of running this site have been more than expected. I want to keep the domain and upkeep running, so I will be adding a donation link to the site. It’s embarrassing even to ask, but I feel like this has been a valuable resource for many.
If you appreciate what I do here, my Kofi link is below.
Thanks kindly and stay safe.
