I’d consider it.
I haven’t bought directly from an author’s website yet, but it’s not something I’m opposed to. It’s more that I tend to find new books either from author newsletters or through Amazon, which means I tend to click through from the newsletter and buy from Amazon.
Many of the authors I read have their books enrolled in Kindle Unlimited, which means the authors aren’t permitted to offer their ebooks for sale anywhere except on Amazon … which means their books aren’t available on their websites.
So while I’d consider buying a book from an author’s website, I haven’t. At least, not yet.
