I want to buy my first ebooks and I have two goals: don’t pay Amazon, and give the largest possible cut to the authors. Is there something like Bandcamp for ebooks?

    I like the sound of that! Let’s see…

    No, not in any of the (first 30) stores. The author’s website only lists amazon, audible, and apple books, so they may not have another channel for selling. I’ll send them an email and see.

        I’m a writer and have an ebook. Also accept support on Patreon. I wouldn’t mind having more places to publish my ebooks other then Amazon. I do publish on Barnes and Noble, as well has Google books. I willing to offer DMI free.

      Reach out to the author, unfortunately a lot of small publishers or self published are exclusive to Amazon.
