You can get tons of books on Kindle for free if you are a prime member, honestly I usually just pay for them since I don't know how the authors get compensated if you don't purchase. But I have tried random books I normally wouldn't read and then if I like the book I'll pay for it after the fact or obviously buy other books from the same author.

I do that unless a) the author is stinking rich already (JK Rowling and the Harry Potter book I tried out) or they are b) dead. -
rickgregory so by that logic, if you're already rich, you don't deserve compensation for your efforts?
Guess I deserve free food from Sean Brock, Rodney Scott, etc...... -
No one is forcing people to put their books in this program. Most of them are doing it for a couple of reasons... a) they're self-published and want exposure, b) they have a new book coming out and want to get readers for their work in hopes you buy the new work.
If they want compensation, charge for the book. If I feel it's worth it, I'll pay. If they choose to put the product in this program *they're choosing to do that*. Got something against free choice?Last edited by rickgregory; January 13, 2020, 05:26 PM.

Good timing as a friend just passed a sourdough starter to us a few weeks ago. Been learning about it and this certainly will help, though a quick read says this is rather complicated (or not?) So far, I've made a couple of loaves of bread - more like a soft french bread first try, sourdough blueberry muffins, and sourdough hot dog wraps. I've been keeping the starter in the fridge and feeding weekly; being I work full time, I can't be feeding daily. Thanks for the tip!Comment

The basic recipe isn't complicated but does require some patience. He uses a levain to ge the bread rising and making it takes a few days. You could use the rest of the technique with instant yeast, it just won't be as complexly flavored. DO read all of chapter 1 carefully though. -
Bleh, 500 char limit... On not being able to feed the starter daily... he has a preference for less acidic breads and notes that long times in the fridge with less frequent feedings will develop that profile. His take is to just remove the starter, take a small amount out, feed it and use it in a couple of hours while it's still sweeter. The discussion is on pp 70-73.

Yeah, it looks like the deal is gone. I'd bet you weren't logged in yesterday (or not in the US?).Last edited by rickgregory; January 13, 2020, 05:26 PM.
