Amazon.com: Print Through Us…Or Else

Filed Under : Passing It On,Podiobooks,Writing by Chris Miller

Apr.9,2008

Authors are now publishing their own books without a publisher. And some artists are releasing free audiobooks online, making money just like Radiohead or shareware software authors: via that old standby, The Tip Jar. You, the consumer, pay what you think is fair. The artist keeps every cent (or the vast majority of it) without the usual tangled mess of shady characters each taking ‘their cut’.Pretty good for everyone around, eh?Well … it has been so far. But over the last week, Amazon.com announced something rather startling. All Print-On-Demand authors are now required to have their books printed through Amazon exclusively — or they will no longer enjoy a Buy Now button on Amazon.com.

It’s now time to help Seth Harwood to climb up the charts on Amazon.com. The official release day is upon us, and it’s time to concentrate our efforts.

When: Today. Palm Sunday. March 16th, 2008.

But when specifically: Depends on your time zone. 1PM EST, 10AM PST, 6pm GMT.

What: Buy Jack Wakes Up in print from Amazon.com.

How much:$14.99 for 268 pages. You can’t afford not? to buy it.

Why: Because every author that makes a successful move to print is another notch in our collective lipstick case. Or feather in our cap. Or jewel in our crown. Or some other metaphor I’ve not added. And by “collective” I mean us as supporters of new adventures in the new world of publishing we’re trying to help create and influence. You are part of that us.

No, really why: Look, I’m not getting rich off the affiliate link to Amazon on this or any other book. It may sound like kumbaya bullshit, but this is about collective support. I could go with more metaphors, like a tide rises all boats, but I’m over my quota.

And if you aren’t yet convinced, listen to a few episodes of Jack Wakes Up for free. Then go buy the book. I’d tell you to listen to the whole thing, but there isn’t time if you want to help Seth rush the charts. So buy it now, and listen later. Money well spent.
