I just published another book at the Kindle store this weekend, and I gave the Select program another long and hard look. It was tempting, but I'd also done my end-of-year spreadsheet on book sales, and even though my Amazon sales have been improving steadily, the "everybody else" category still represents about half of my total sales (I go through Smashwords, and let them handle the distribution to Sony, Apple, B&N, and Kobo). So not this time, but if my Amazon sales continue to grow I may reconsider next time.
