When Life Gets in the Way of Reading...

With the end of summer upon us I find that my "me" time and my reading time has slipped away like so many people's.  I have family, home and work obligations.  My significant other is taking college courses and needs my assistance and support to be successful in his classes (I may have gone to three colleges for a total of 8 years-I know my way around colleges).  This has left so little time for me to read.  And people who know me know I'm a voracious reader.  So, how have I been coping and finding a little me/reading time in between everything?  Little bits of time at a time...

Amazon's eBook Return Policy ~ My Thoughts

I recently found out about Amazon's Kindle book return policy, which in my mind is ridiculous.  It gives you seven days from the purchase date to return a book.  So in that time a reader has the opportunity to read the full book and then return it.  This, in my opinion, is very damaging to the Indie author community.  People need to be accountable for their actions, yes, but at the same point Amazon's policy at times allows unscrupulous readers to do that.
