What the authors are forgetting is that the hype around a new release in the U.S.A. is on the blogs read by fans overseas.
If the ebook isn't released here till 1, 2 or 3 years later there is no hype then .... and I'll have forgotten about the book, and probably the author too, by then. If I've not decided to boycott them because I'm fed up, that is.
This year I have dropped many U.S.A. authors from my must have list and have discovered some great U.K. authors to replace them.
(I love Stephen Booth, for example and I would never have discovered him if it wasn't for GR. Ditto Sue Moorcroft.)
