A writer's guide to collecting sales tax

Helen Sedwick valiantly tries to explain the complex system of sales taxes and how they apply to writers who sell their own books or other goods to the public: "When you resell your books to your customers at book fairs and through your website, you may be obligated to pay sales tax to the state in which the transaction takes place, although you may charge the tax to your buyers. And you are required to fill out state sales tax forms and pay sales tax to your state."
