I buy used books when I know I'll only read it once - and then I donate to the local public HS library. As a writer who hopes to make royalties one day, I do not begrudge any reader the chance to explore new work at a bargain price - you've hit the nail on the head, Brenda.Voixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10929466043971880516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9791523.post-1105488414002200772005-01-11T19:06:00.000-05:002005-01-11T19:06:00.000-05:00Five replies and nobody's mad at me?

It is rare that any of my favorite authors are in the used bookstores though. but I can say that I have discovered new favorite authors in used bookstores. and now will buy their books brand new as soon as they hit the shelves! so see you are right. If I wouldn't have found them used I wouldn't be stalking the shelves of Barnes & Noble waiting for the new ones!<br />HeatherAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9791523.post-1105464811094557122005-01-11T12:33:00.000-05:002005-01-11T12:33:00.000-05:00You know Brenda when you put it like that, it actu...You know Brenda when you put it like that, it actually makes much good sense. =)<br /><br />CeceAmie Stuarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14145328243563702260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9791523.post-1105464277469049482005-01-11T12:24:00.000-05:002005-01-11T12:24:00.000-05:00I guess I understand both sides of the argument, b...I guess I understand both sides of the argument, but probably would agree more strongly with your position--especially since the way to get me to purchase anything full price (especially pricey hardbacks) is after I've either read something by an author from the library or after a great by second-hand.daisymariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16335423179107661562noreply@blogger.com
