How Amazon is cheating in its fight against your local bookstore
I don’t have a book on the market yet, so I don’t officially have a dog in the Amazon-versus-independent booksellers fight yet.  But I like to think I will someday, so maybe I have dog fetus.  You’ve heard the basic arguments, I suppose.
