All credit card transactions, which involve a swipe and the pushing of a few buttons, come with a percentage taken off the top. (The electrons belong to a union, maybe?)

Transactions involving pieces of paper, envelopes, and stamps, and the schlepping of those pieces of paper from place to place to place, do not. Go figure.

These comments are so far superior to the Algonquin Round Table's efforts I fear an in-person, live salon might be the death of us all. So that wallpaper goes or we do. Or something. I actually have a new piglet I can sell to throw into the bar jar.

Can't the Indies sign up for local ads? I'm not an expert on Internets advertising, but if Google can target ads to the point where if I clean out my gmail Spam folder I get recipies for Spam Omlets, Indies can probably purchase ads targeted to Wonketters within their market area(s).

Then there's all the self publishers, Lulu and her buddies. Blurb? And?

Just wait till someone dies and leaves me money! My Amazon wish list is already passed the maximum 2500 so I have about 600 in sublists.

Anyone feeling sick?
