It’s only second in importance to writing my next book. (Which I should probably be working on at this moment instead of procrasti-blogging…)
Today I’m sharing about a few services for readers with print disabilities. Publishers spend buckets of money connecting with potential book buyers. Authors are always on the lookout for Superfans who want to read every new thing we write. Shouldn’t it be a no-brainer to do everything within our power to make our books more accessible for all readers?
