NOTES

According to The Guardian, British publishers and the Society for Authors (a trade union for UK writers) are trying to push back against Amazon’s fierce demands for more power in the book industry. They liken Amazon’s terms to a form of “assisted suicide.”

According to The Times, Barnes and Noble will spin off its Nook division as a separate company from its traditional bookseller endeavors.

Carlton Melton’s “Spiderwebs” accompanies Maureen Vance’s “Jane and Me.” This song is available on the album Always Even.

The Tequila Worms have generously offered their album Cantina as a free download.
