I am honestly a frustrated bookworm who happens to love buying books but are left unread on my book shelves. Lol! I honestly got two shelves at home. Well guys, this is one wonderful day I want to share to all my readers here at Coupon Saver. Why? It is because I have discovered amazon coupon codes today and I am very much eager to share every detail to you.

But before sharing to you about amazon coupon codes, let me just share a few tidbits about Amazon’s existence. This is for the benefit who doesn’t know yet. Amazon.com, Inc. is an American electronic commerce company in Seattle, Washington. They are one of the first major companies to sell goods over the Internet. Cool, isn’t it? They existed since 1994 and is launched last 1995. Wow, that is quite a couple of years ago. I couldn’t imagine at first how could the brain of these people-the founders of Amazon, to have launched an electronic commerce company way back my kindergarten years. You read it right, guys! I am on my kindergarten at that time. Now, I just graduated from College last March of this year and oh just imagine Amazon has remained profitable up to these years.

Well, enough for my praises about them because what I really wanted to share is my discovery on amazon coupon codes. If you want to learn more about the company, I will leave it to you as a research.

But don’t worry; I won’t be leaving amazon coupon codes as a research to you because I am even excited to share to you about it. I am in fact an avid buyer of books from Amazon. And it was just so frustrating for me a few years back then not to be able to find discounts, coupons and any promo codes for the books I am buying from them. Way back my first year in College, I did not even understand what all these codes are about. All I just know at that time is I need my “ninong’s” credit card to pay for the books I purchased from them.

I queried Google so hard but not smartly about these coupon codes but I could not get a free one. I have to purchase it from them too. Oh my goodness, how could I purchase those coupon codes when I even wanted to have one of those to avail of discounts and other promo from Amazon? Well, thanks that now I could smartly search for coupon codes, more specifically amazon coupon codes!

Although the issue may be exercising the best legal minds around the world, Google’s move into book publishing may herald the dawn of a new future for established authors as well aspiring writers everywhere. The 70-30 split in favour of the author is what has given the search giant the advantage in terms of public opinion. What happens in the various legal tussles that Google faces around the world as a result of its move is less culturally significant than the general move towards electronic book publishing.

As many of us will know, because we’ve looked into it, because we were once aspiring authors, because everyone’s got a book in them, etc etc… anyway, as many of us will know, writing books very rarely makes money for the author of the work. This is because, in the old days, in traditional publishing, authors would receive a tiny percentage of the royalties – that’s what they call the profits, not sure why, not exactly princely sums for most writers. Sometimes, the percentage could be as low as 2 or 3 per cent, sometimes closer to 10 per cent, if you’re lucky.

The reasoning – some would say excuse – was that the one publishing company out of hundreds that you may have approached which finally decided to take a look at your manuscript and deemed it fit to publish had a small army of staff to pay and all sorts of marketing and distribution costs to consider. So, even though you and your potentially best-selling book is the reason for the existence of their global operation, you were promised next to nothing.

Organisations such as the Author’s Guild have been lobbying publishers for decades to try and get a better deal for authors, but it was fighting a losing battle against the huge corporate machine that book publishing became, largely as a result of being addicted to the oil of best-selling books by already-popular authors.

New writers very rarely got a look in. In recent years, however, things have improved, with new authors given much more support by readers themselves as well as numerous competitions, but if the old adage is true that “Everyone’s got a book in them”, then there’s a few billion books still waiting to be publishing.

But where to find the physical space for these books? High street bookshops are already packed with established product, and libraries are not visited as often as perhaps they should be. So that really makes digital publishing the ideal choice.

Amazon’s Kindle ebook reader has proved tremendously successful, with 1 million people thought to be using the handy little device. But Amazon clearly does not have the reach that Google has. The search giant has taken things much further than Amazon has, with deals with famous libraries around the world – including one with the Bibliotheque Nationale de France,  one with the Balliol College of Oxford – as well as winning the agreement of writers’ and publishers’ representative groups, such the Author’s Guild and the Association of American Publishers.

Amazon is one of three major companies – the other two are Microsoft and Yahoo! – objecting to the deal, claiming it would give Google too much power. But the practice has already been established in some form, in some small way by all of these companies, so what’s there to argue about. Perhaps they’re all providing their soundbytes to the media so their organisation or company can benefit from the global publicity this story is getting.

Whatever the reason, it sounds like a good new deal for authors. And because it’s a digital process, there’s unlikely to be any chance of books whose authors not being credited for their work. Many thousands of books that were published in the past, books that may be out of print, often have no author credited. Google has decided to publish these books as part of its electronic publishing move. There doesn’t seem to be much wrong with that. Although if your concern is American cultural imperialism, that’s a different issue.
