What others are saying and what I might be thinking right now?

More to come, but comments and words heard in the passing often spark some thoughts, profound or flippant. Right now, much of it is about whether or not to have anything to do with Amazon publishing. @booksaremybag are clear on where they stand and they have a point. A couple of small independent bookshops I’ve been in recently also have strong views. I think I will be joining them.
