Now, a bit of a confession. I posted the above mostly to check out a new linkage from here to Amazon which will earn Mermaids a bit of the profits every time anyone clicks from here to the book and buys it. Let me say up front that, if you are an inveterate reader and have an independent bookstore from which you usually purchase, please continue to do just that. I owned a bookstore for five years and I know both what an invaluable service they are to the community and how hard it is to make a living offering that service. If you do not have a local store and at some point you are moved to want to look more seriously at and possibly purchase a book mentioned and linked here, it would be a nice thing to do to reward the management for its efforts.
I promise I will put any earnings to humanitarian purposes such as buying donuts for the boys in the mail room one morning or dogitarian purposes by buying a treat for Buddy.
And, what the heck, as long as I'm pimping here, let me further suggest two of my favorite books of the year so far, The Pint Man
And now we return you to our regularly schedule blather, already in progress...

If I ever buy from Amazon from now on I will go through here. Is there a program for Barnes and Noble that does the same? If I buy a NON book thing-ee from Amazon, do you get money too? If so,do you have to list the item here or can I just go to Amazon through you and buy stuff and you get paid? I do not know much about this program but am more than willing to shop via you if it does help. Especially to buy Buddy stuff.
ReplyDeleteNo to Barnes and Noble, yes to "NON book thing-ee" if it has been mentioned and linked from here. In other words, you know what to do and who to talk to when you're ready to buy.
