anthony-pearson.com now first to appear in Google search
12I was surprised to see today that my website now appears 1st in google search when you search for “anthony pearson official website.”
I am shocked to discover the amount of pride I receive from this, though I believe it is justified considering that it didn’t even exist a month ago!
I look forward to continued success with the website, and hopefully I will eventually appear on the front page of Google when you search for just my name. I believe this should be helped along when I publish my book.
Wish me luck!
Amazon sells more ebooks than actual books
41I read this article today:

Being a Kindle owner myself I can understand why digital books have become the main medium for consuming books on amazon. Through my kindle app on my phone and the kindle itself I am always on the current page that I am reading. I can pick it up at any time, whether I have a few mins while I’m cooking, or waiting for the kettle to boil. I would not be able to read as much as I do otherwise. The main benefit I see is that if a want a book, I buy it, and then I’m reading it straight away. No waiting for delivery.
Most of all I get access to many wonderful Indy writers who may not have been able to get their book published through traditional channels.
Viva la ebook Revolucion!
