[Writing Post] More on Amazon and Merry Christmas
Ah, yes, Wednesday. The day in which I try to come up with something pithy (or at the VERY, Very least coherent) about writing, the publishing industry, or some other aspect of this business. And… yeah. Coherent is about as good as I’m going to get today. It’s been a busy week. Amazon is still […]

This was my post in early 2010 about one of the first Amazon ebook pricing kerfuffles. In the past month, they’ve had *3* different kerfuffles pop up. Amazon is a major player in publishing.

Book ‘Em, Danno….
I finally did something I shoulda done a long time ago and kept up with instead of freaking out this morning and running around like an idiot.
