Life's Little Annoyances

People asking "Where can I buy your books?"

What on earth do they mean by that?

This is particularly annoying in the age of internet, where, even when they're self-published, the answer is always "Amazon."

I have to agree with this.

Sadly, reading has become a specialized niche activity in the eyes of a lot of people, and it's a whole culture that they are unfamiliar with.
