This whole thing bothers me, though. People can spend their money however they want, but there are school libraries and public libraries that are in deparate need of funds for books, materials, staff, etc. Add to that prison libraries, Salvation Army stores, churches, etc. that serve a population that desparately needs access to books.

I hope the people that donated to Wordsmith will also find it in their heart to donate to literary causes that serve the people who need it most.

Again, nothing against Wordsmiths …
