I think everyone here knows that I understand about financial issues - and I know that that could be the case. One dear reader had that problem with, I believe, Writer's Block - and I sent it to said dear reader and told said dear reader to pay whenever they could - which said dear reader did when they were able. That way, they enjoyed the book and weren't under any pressure to worry about it - and I make that offer with any of the books to any dear reader. I'm trying to get to the root of why people who CAN afford it and who have enjoyed earlier books did not get Rewind, a book which I was told everyone was dying to read because the story was of interest to anyone who was around in the early days of this here site. I'm not trying to guilt trip anyone and I'm just genuinely curious and no one wants to step up and just answer. I'm not going to be mad, I'm not upset about it, but when something doesn't make sense to me I can let it go for a certain period of time and then my curiosity gets the better of me. I'm certainly not taking anyone to task - but I hear about other books being read and I just sit here and scratch my head. No one has to feel obligated to buy anything of mine or anyone else's on this here site, and I think that's pretty plain. I welcome everyone and I think my open arms should be pretty obvious. This isn't a message board like other sites have - in other words, part of some message board universe - this one costs money to maintain and I maintain it because a) I love the people who come here, and b) we really are the best community in the history of the Internet.
There, that was certainly long-winded.
