All my products are Pay-What-You-Can. The prices here are guides. If you are unwaged, on a low pension or otherwise in difficult circumstances, feel free to offer less; on the other hand, if you're feeling flush you can give more. I am on the lowest level of pension with occasional small income from proofreading work. Millionaires, please add noughts.
