Are you frustrated by profit-based news and media? If so, come sit by me!

I’m a proudly independent author, journalist, artist, fundraiser, purveyor of Investigative Comedy, professional snark generator and many other things—so please consider supporting my work. Some ways you can do that:

  1. Buy and review Pizza for Good. Are you familiar with the concept of “Chowfunding?” If not, you totally should be. For under 5 bucks you can own your very own set of original recipes and have a blueprint for a fun way to raise money. (Buy now on BigCartel and I’ll sign the book for you)
  2. Subscribe to CrankyYank. I started this blog late last year and could really use your help with shares and regular fans. So, click here to subscribe and let’s get to work snarking our way through the week’s news. (Subscribe here)
  3. Buy and review Leaving Triscuit. My beloved rat terrier (RIP) inspired me to write an eBook that will help you manage leaving your pets for either work or vacation. When did owning a pet become a burden? Doesn’t have to be. (NEW: a revised edition with a new preface is coming soon, as well as a paperback version!)
  4. Buy ‘Light of Love‘—music, lyric & vocals by Will Pollock. Production, instruments and backing vocals by Matthew Smith. Co-produced by Will Pollock. Available for streaming on Pandora and Spotify.
  5. Buy and review Gentle with Gertie. My foray into Kid Lit is based on a true story: newborn Ash enters the home of a terrier called Gertie, who was the previous queen of the castle. With a few blips and learning experiences, the two become best friends and share a deep love for each other. (NEW: a sequel is on the way for late 2024!) Website: GentlewithGertie.com
  6. Buy and review my entries in Teresa Velardi‘s Daily Gift book series. I’ve contributed to all three compilations so much sure to check them out. My Amazon Author Page has all the details.
  7. Subscribe to and support TrumpFile.org. You can read all my reporting at this link.
  8. Subscribe to my YouTube, “Cranky Journo” Substack (coming soon) and add your name to my mailing list!

I’ve got many more projects on the way, so make sure to keep up to date and connect with me on one of the 12,000 social-media sites. More active recently on Bluesky, now that Elon turned Twitter into a Nazi dumpster fire.

Do you have a story tip or have something you’d like me to cover on CrankyYank.com? Please yell at me and let’s talk. Guest bloggers are always welcome.

Cheers to cured crankies,

Will
