Yes, I banned you fro coming to my site and being an idiot. Taylor514ce came with a question and was polite the entire time. You come to the authors site, which he pays for by the way, and talk about boycotting his books.

OR it could be he has a TV show in the works, is workign on writing a new book for a new publisher with a deadline, was on his way t eat and just did not have the paperwork in front of him. Also, as others have stated, he does have an agent to handle the negotiations. Heknew it was a limited restricted deal. That answered the question people wanted. Be happy he and I took the freaking time to answer the questionin the first place.

In fact, I'd think he'd be weary of anything exclusive ever again.

You are a bit delusional. Do you really think people are going to boycott his books because you say so? Because he had the nerve to have a limited exclusive deal for an e-book.
Also, from what I can tell have no idea about how e-books get sold. You have no idea why Terry went the route he did. He had very good reasons. There are so many things that go on behind the scenes in the publishing world. You really have no idea what you are talking about. All you are doing is throwing a fit because you did not get what you wanted, when you wanted it.
I appologize to the rest of this community, but I am tired of hearign this guy talk about things when he has no idea what he is talking about.
