#writerscoffeeclub Feb 25: How do you feel about Amazon's influence on books and publishing?
I describe Amazon as the company I love to hate.
Love: ❤️
KDP and the way it's democratised publishing, allowing anyone to publish their own work. The interface is good, and the free tools can get you going. There are others but KDP is the biggest.
Hate: 🤬
The fact they pay hardly any tax, treat their workers like sh*t, destroy indie book shops, have no quality control and pay measly royalties.
