Why I No Longer Sell on Amazon
When I published my first book in 2011, I used Lulu. At the time, it was one of the few print-on-demand options that allowed authors to retain control over content, pricing, and distribution. Over the years, I explored other publishing routes, including limited digital placement on Amazon Kindle, but I remained consistent with Lulu for physical books. As of this writing, I am still evaluating whether those remaining Kindle titles will stay available.

Working with people you disagree with
Being in a closed circle of friends shields us from opposing ideas, our friends are generally people we agree with or who would be willing to go along with our ideas or even convince us otherwise. There are only very few places where we meet opposing points of views, the few I can think of are; at work, siblings or random strangers. This means that we often don’t get to work with people we disagree with, for strangers we only work with them for a limited time, with siblings we have parents to mediate and often go separate ways during disagreements, at the workplace we have a clear hierarchy for decision making. This means that the average person doesn’t know how to work with people they disagree with.
