Thank you everyone!  As Nomeus has stated, it was a fun project to research and put together.

Amazon also doesn't pay state or local sales tax. I'll be buying through you guys.
Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?

yeah, but the authors get less royalty money through Amazon that through the MJ PayPal page

Had no idea. Oops. Wait...authors only get 7% of cover price through Amazon?!

^Depends on the publisher and number of copies sold.  Once 2,000 copies are sold, our royalty rate spikes up to a lifetime max of 10% of the retail price.

It's all good.  Nobody is expecting to retire from this.

Figured, but at this point, I'd like to cancel and reorder on principle alone.

Have you talked to Chamblins about stocking it? I'd prefer to purchase either through you guys or via a local bookstore. Prefer to pay the sales tax and support the local economy.
