Usually they end up rising<b> >.< </b> <br /><br />Authors I really, really want to read sit there collecting dust because there is always something I can nab on the cheap to suit my personal FOTM whims. Again, I am a cheapskate and in no way represent what I think is the norm. Yanno, ppl with money :P<br /><br />Good article, thx for allowing me to chime in.<br /><br /> <br />doandroidzdreamhttps://twitter.com/doandroidzdreamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7467549889510324132.post-13384181058485790122016-01-06T03:35:09.780-05:002016-01-06T03:35:09.780-05:00Very interesting post, Travis.

For one, authors have to live too, and the other, free items tend to attract a different kind of audience, an audience who does not understand the value of books and would not spend money either way/only get them 'because they're free'.<br /><br />Then there's this: if it's free/low priced, how good can it be? If the author himself is giving it away like one would their old, used shirts, it makes it seem as if he doesn't believe in the value of his book either, or that it's simply not good enough to 'deserve' a price. Hence... no free books works for me.<br /><br />PS: Happy New Year!

BTW, I loved the Paradox series - would love to see a return to that world one day!Jamie Sawyerhttp://www.jamiesawyer.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7467549889510324132.post-29319848176564306242015-12-30T21:00:52.603-05:002015-12-30T21:00:52.603-05:00Well, ever since I read The Spirit Thief I have th...Well, ever since I read The Spirit Thief I have thought your books are fantastic, and have read each of them that have come out.
