The bad news:<\/strong><\/strong> Amazon kicked back the paperback file on a technicality.<\/p>\n

The good news:<\/strong><\/strong> The technicality was small, but the rejection gave Kit and me a chance to rethink the release of the printed book.<\/p>\n

So. Tomorrow — Wednesday, April 4 — you can place your order for the paperback of Basics of Resistance<\/em>.<\/strong><\/strong> Not your pre-order. Your order.<\/p>\n

UPDATE: See below.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

We’ve been absolutely thrilled by your response. We know a lot of you are awaiting the paperback. Because it’s print-on-demand it’ll probably take longer than a standard Amazon order (how much longer we don’t yet know) and we wanted to make sure you dead-tree loyalists got your copies without delay. As soon as you order, Amazon’s publishing arm will warm up and prepare to deliver. <\/p>\n

The Kindle version will still release April 19, with $0.99 pre-orders continuing until then. You Kindle buyers are getting such a deal! <\/p>\n

It costs a lot more and takes longer to put a quality trade paperback on a bookshelf. So dear Kindle buyers, please don’t mind if paperback people step in ahead of you. Or if you do mind, you could always become a paperback buyer yourself. Given the unknowns of the print-on-demand process, you might all be getting your books at the same time, anyhow.<\/p>\n

When Kit and I were rethinking the paperback release, I tried to persuade her to go for Thursday, April 5 and say the new date was to commemorate the Sugar Act of 1764<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She wasn’t having that. But I still think the Sugar Act is worth recalling as one of the Bad British Deeds that shook the American colonial economy and set the stage for the shattering rebellion against the better-known Stamp Act. So here it is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
