Hello Friends, 1) The list has been quiet recently. When I saw the front page headline in the New York Sunday Times about unrest and fear in India, I rather expected to see some commentary here from members of the diaspora. So, firstly, I hope you and yours are all well. And second, any comment? The stories of people panicking and fleeing ahead of anticipated communal violence, as well as stories of rumors of Pakistan whipping up fears by spreading false rumors, were deeply disturbing. But for those of us who have no particular connection to India, it's hard to gauge what's really going on. India's a big place, after all. Any comments?
2) In my inbox today a nice note from Amazon announcing a million or so ebook titles in the Kindle Direct Publishing program (including my 3 books, yay), are now available in India, through Amazon.com. I wonder if this will change your buying habits? Or were those of you who purchase & read ebooks in India already able to find the books you wanted through other sources? Kind regards, jrs
