I have copy edited a book formerly published by an arm of Penguin. It had matches. In 12 century Scotland. I rest my case.

I do buy books directly from places which still let me download the file, which means NOT bookshop.org, which REQUIRES purchasers use their proprietary ebook reader. No, thank you. No no no.

(I've bought from author sites and itch. If you know of other places, let me know!?)
