Inkmesh shows no eBooks available for a number of series I am interested in, including Perry Mason, Ellery Queen, Mr. & Mrs. North and Mike Shayne.

So the first thing I did was email letters to the most recent publishers requesting eBooks of them. I got a couple of replies. My emails may not have any effect on the publishers, but they make me feel good.

Then I went to Amazon, only to find out that there are few paper books currently in print of these series! I always click on the "Please publish an eBook button". It's effortless, and can't hurt.

One day I'll buy the paper books I can, but so far I've just read other things.
