Ah, so it's an Adobe issue. Which is pretty much everyone
except Amazon. Alright, that makes sense. Thank you, Strnd and Harry.
I'm not offended, and I hope I haven't offended either of you.
But with regards to silence and lies, I have a very strong philosophy to make my book available for sale everywhere I can. As long as Amazon and B&N make it within my means to do so, I will. I'm still in the process of uploading elsewhere -- my 52 Novels Smashwords Word Doc came in the email today, but I want to proof it before I throw it onto Smashwords because originally there were some special characters not displaying properly -- but if there's a way and a means, I shall.
But, see, I have the privilege that my book sales aren't buying insulin medication, so I can place a higher value on
availability over
profit. I personally think that's a
good value division (if I didn't think it was good, I'd change philosophies!

) but I also recognize that it's a philosophy that requires at least some financial privilege, so I don't try to push it on others.
As a
consumer, on the other hand, I still want to put my money where it's least likely to evaporate into thin air.
