Danny Caine, owner of the Raven Book Store, Lawrence, Kan., has published How to Resist Amazon and Why, a zine that includes his now-viral "letter to @JeffBezos from a small independent bookstore in the middle of the country," as well as some of the bookseller's Twitter advocacy "and several strategies to deal with Amazon's continuing overreach."
On Sunday, the Raven tweeted: "We spent a few hours last night making 500 copies of our HOW TO RESIST AMAZON AND WHY zine and packaging orders for 26 bookstores. Thanks to @rmccarthyjames, @chancedibben, @noradibben and Kara for helping! Stay tuned tomorrow for a list of places to buy it!"
By Monday, the bookseller had listed more than 30 indie bookstores that will carry the publication, noting: "Folks can buy the zine right here, and bookstores are welcome to DM us or e-mail raven at ravenbookstore dot com to chat about carrying the zine! Thank you to everyone for your support!"
