“There is a significant lack of material in a variety of subject areas. Fiction and nonfiction featuring or about minorities is in particularly short supply. There is very little about film or drama. There’s not a whole lot on personal finance either.” – Jay Hartman of KnowBetter.com, in a post to the eBook Community list.

Jay goes on to comment that “it’s a safe bet that the bulk of the ebooks out there are fiction: fantasy, sci-fi, romance and mystery. Most of those don’t feature minority characters. So, if you steer clear of those things, virtually everything else is pretty much fair game.” Another eBook Community member, Bill Warner of GLB Publishers, asks Jay: “Are you including gays/lesbians in that minority analysis?”
