I've always wondered if the rise of audiobooks and easier access to them has benefited blind and visual impaired people as a side effect to its mainstream popularity in c/[email protected]

@southsamurai @gabe Now it's all downloadable, not so much CD's anymore.

Hey, remember that there's libro.fm as a good alternative to audible! It can even support your local bookstores. in c/[email protected]

@gabe I'd love that! Can you email me the giant list of resources? If I can do it, I'd rather not do any shipping, at all, myself, or inventory, like, I'd want it to be a very very passive thing! My literary agent is already side eyeing me because I'm playing in the Fedi rather than meeting my deadlines. LMAO! I wanted to possibly have a bookshop store for print books but then a Libro FM store that highlighted books with Disabled characters across multiple genres. I just launched a new website, and am now seriously thinking about large print titles and otherwise, but I'm sure Bookshop has large print titles. We can download digital Braille files from a number of our Disabled libraries, but still, now you got me thinking so can you email me? https://robertkingett.com/contact/

@gabe This makes me want to create my own online bookstore, kind of! I’m the worst when it comes to finding out about new titles though so my store would always be out of date!

@antonim @reversebananimals I'm honestly not sure how Amazon thought GR was gonna make them money? I mean, if I wanna buy a Kindle book/book from Amazon, I never go to Goodreads. I just go there to look up series and books by authors and then just use my libraries to get the books. I knew even back then GR would **never** make Amazon money.
