Thanks very much for your kind ...Archduke Piccolo,<br /><br />Thanks very much for your kind comment. I'm never going to make a fortune - or even a living - writing books, but I enjoy the process. As to a wider readership ... well I understand that there is at least one magazine article about adapting PW for Fantasy gaming and the ECW in the pipeline, and that will help to spread the word.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-83947822441618977772017-09-12T15:48:42.150+01:002017-09-12T15:48:42.150+01:00Conrad Kinch,

I price all my books below that recommended by Lulu.com so that potential purchasers will find them attractive to buy. It means I make much less profit per sale, but sales are probably higher as a result.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-11983975804181296812017-09-12T09:21:07.896+01:002017-09-12T09:21:07.896+01:00I'm very surprised by how well the ePubs do.I'm very surprised by how well the ePubs do.nobbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02552663142940856622noreply@blogger.com
