Good luck, you silly little book!

    I just read Tor.com’s review of this book, and I am going to go buy it now. My only question is, do you as the writer get any advantage royalty-wise from me buying it as an ebook or paperback? Amazon, Borders, Barnes & Noble, etc. (I’ve requested it as an iBook, but who knows how long it will take apple.)

    Hi Crys, welcome! I should really post about this at length some day,
    but yes, I do get quite a substantial advantage if you buy it as an
    ebook rather than in dead-tree form — the royalties I get for an
    ebook sale are much larger. And even though I think the book itself is
    quite pretty, as an author I like the fact that with an ebook, a
    reader can adjust the text size, etc. for optimal viewing. Anything
    that makes the reader more comfortable is going to help them like my
    book better. ;-)

    Obsession is so damn cool!

    Don’t you wish you could do that every night? It’s like having an extra Christmas.

    I’m a dead-tree book lover myself. :) I’m testing out the e-book world. I think it will be great for trips, but when I hunker down with a cuppa tea or soup, I want some rustly pages.
