I suspect everyone is confused more or less, including me. I made the video for the Bittersweet Farm series and finished it. Then in the middle of the night I thought "Gee, I didn't say 'available at Amazon'."
Hmm. Much pondering about that. Is it necessary? Is it ugly? If I'm creating a beautiful series of images, do I want AMAZON.COM in neon lights? Is this a commercial or is this an announcement.
Is it somewhere in between?
Can't people find the books without a map and a push on the back?
I had added a panel that said 'Fiction For Horse Lovers'. I'm sure some people will still be confused by that but they require professional help perhaps. The question persisted--will people actually realize this video is about books. Even with 5 book covers, is it made plain enough? Are they confused and think that Bittersweet Farm is a stable and will try to call for lessons?
As you can see I never underestimate confusion. I have accepted that some people will just be confused, just as they are unable to find the horses in one of the books. "I skimmed the whole book, I didn't see anything about horses."
This won't help them but I like it.
