The FTC recently published rules about disclosure for amateur bloggers.
I am an amateur blogger.
I don't get paid to write the blog.
I get paid when I sell books to publishers, and again when those books generate income via sales to readers.
For the purposes of FTC compliance it's just best to assume I'm a bought and paid for pawn of the publishing industry.
It's best to just assume I have a vested financial interest in any and every book and product mentioned on this blog, particularly the ones I don't identify as written by my clients.
Consider yourself duly notified of my lack of objectivity, and of course thank the FTC for watching out for you.

Post a Comment
Keep your comments succinct. Any comment that runs longer than 100 words is generally too long.
If you're commenting more than three times a day, it's too much.
Civility is enforced. Spelling/grammar mistakes may be pointed out ONLY in the blog post itself, not in any of the ensuing commenter's contributions.
If your comment doesn't show up, it's most likely that Blogger ate it. Try posting again using a GoogleID. (comment moderation is on only for older posts)
