And now I’m taking my brand new spring cold back to bed.

I’m feeling conflicted about Amazon right now. I remember when the online bookstore was scrappy and innovative. In fact, one year they sent me a travel mug as a thanks, and another time they sent me something like 10 postage stamps.
We’re along way from when folks predicted founder Jeff Bezos would flat out fail. In […]
Over at Publishers Weekly, Jim Milliot reports that a major topic of conversation at the London Book Fair this month is Amazon’s continuing attempt to force POD publishers to use Amazon’s BookSurge if they want their books listed on the now gigantic online e-tailer. Jim makes a series of interesting points, including:

Back in March I speculated about what I’d do when my $600 rebate arrived. Today, with the announcement that the first rebates were deposited today, I looked back at my post.
I was tickled to see that I managed to order a new couch and get bookcases without the rebate. But I’m still not sure what […]
We seem to be stuck in a period of 54, 55, 56, and 57 jobs… today its 57 Writing, Blogging, Editing and Translation Jobs.
Shall I remind you that when I started listing jobs, what, five or six years ago, it was tough getting four new ones? Nah…. you’ve already heard that story.
Write well and often,

Yielding Wealth, a b5 blog, pointed to a blog that’s new to me called The Simple Dollar; the article in question is: From Budgeting to the Net Worth Mentality
This is an excellent article and if you’re at all like me, you’ll probably learn something. The idea of moving from budgeting or spending plans to thinking […]
I know, you think it’s Friday and that I’ve just posted 56 Writing, Editing, Translating and Etc. Jobs.
But, thanks to technology, and assuming I handle the post date correctly, I’m really writing this on Thursday evening. I start a retreat at 6 a.m. and knew I wouldn’t get up early enough to do the jobs… […]
Sigh! I suppose it should be obvious, but until I read Joe Wikert’s story called Kindle Book Conversion: One Author’s Story that I realized there would, of course, be formatting problems when it came time to get your book, or mine, into shape for whatever ebook reader I wanted to be able to sell it […]
If you’re like me, you’ve found the search function here at The Golden Pencil close to hopeless. We now have a new search engine. The problem is, it’s below the square add on the right, and the old, ineffective search box is still there, in prime real estate right at the top.
The one you […]
I got this emailed response from the Washington State Attorney General’s office in response to my concern about Amazon’s change in policy regarding how they will handle books not printed by their own POD printer BookSurge:
Dear Ms. Wayman:
The Washington Attorney General’s Antitrust Division has received many complaints regarding the new “print on demand” or […]
