Jean, as always, this article is--as you may have said long ago but I was a little too old to have said--"right on." But I'm commenting not on the article but about your book, Down and Out on the Road South. I see it on Amazon with (sigh!) no reviews. You may want to check out a new publication on Medium, Free Amazon Reviews for Your Featured Book at https://medium.com/free-amazon-book-reviews-for-your-featured-book. These reviews are "verified customer reviews," which comply with Amazon requirements. We are just beginning to list books to be reviewed by Medium readers. Books will be listed first-come-first-served, so you may want to include yours soon. We'll all start reviewing as soon as we have about 20 books listed.
