Supplementary notes

Sample was primarily disseminated via social media and was not random. Data was not weighted by gender, age group, location or any other factors. Some respondents self-identified as "readers"; the bias on the accounts reached skew towards writers, authors, self-identified book lovers, bloggers, online marketers, other artists (musicians, crafters, photographers etc). Based on composition of followers, results skew away from sports-, religion-, scientists/healthcare-, fashion-, food- and travel-themed or focused accounts.
