SEEKING A PISTACHIO SPONSOR. Iβve got this picture book that I made that involves pistachios and wee ninjas that came about from a lie I told my daughter when she was a little younger, and still hadnβt learned to distrust anything out of my mouth. I was going through a 3-day streak of eating a few pistachios at night, and she asked why I always ate them before bed.
So I lied and said it was the antidote for the poison that the wee ninjas give me daily. Fast forward: that 3-day streak turned into over a year of kids stuffing me full of pistachios. At this point, Iβm probably like 60 percent water, 30 percent pistachio, and 20 percent b.s. (maybe like 2 percent undigested Big League Chew and 1 percent random movie quotes). I realize that adds up to more than 100, but I always aim to give at least 110 percent.
Listen if youβve made it this far, I appreciate you, and you should just go ahead and buy a copy of the book that is finally out after a very long bout of procrastination. If you do buy it, if you could leave a review thatβs five stars or says something nice (even if itβs about your mother or something unrelated) that would be super appreciated.
Iβve heard rumors from early readers that the book cures baldness and insomnia, though I canβt substantiate that. And if youβre in any way tied to big pistachio, or even mom and pop pistachio, Iβm seriously seeking sponsorships.
Right now, the book is sitting at like #333,452 on Amazonβs ranking for books about ninjas and nuts, so itβs hard to find. The Amazon link is below. You can also find it in my store origamigiant.com.

Do you love pistachios? Of course you do, who doesn't. Do you eat them every day? Do you eat them every night before bed to counteract the poison that two warring factions of book nook ninjas--very tiny, wee ninjas, I might add-- slip you in an attempt to shrink you to their size, so that they ca...
