(Or do I feel that way because my husband is a pricing consultant... oh dear.) We want the market in which we exist to facilitate things for both authors and readers, and of course resent the middle-man who feeds off that.Kateyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05727622678452936037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5604033530537822263.post-87498946084768667972010-02-03T10:56:20.195-06:002010-02-03T10:56:20.195-06:00Excellent story!
