I used to be a champion procrastinator. I wanted to write. I loved writing. But still … I’d do anything to delay writing. Until a deadline came close. And then adrenaline would fuel a writing session, often late at night. It was stressful, and I hated myself for all the delays. Why was I wasting so much time? Some people say: Just put your bum on a seat and write.

Three decades ago, if you wanted a trade book, you went to a bookstore or a bigger merchant like Wal-mart or a department store with a book “section” It was actually hard to get a book any other way. That really changed starting with Amazon in 1995 and has continued to splinter since with a large number of online retailers making books available that they (mostly) source through Ingram.
