It has just come to my attention that, over on PaperbackSwap, the “users who want this book also want” suggestion for a particular title are:
Perhaps if I had been shelved in that section, I’d have had a second printing.
In related news, with the discovery that there is a web site which will give you my book for free, we have broken all previous pricing records. The new record is expected to stand until another web site decides to actually pay you to take their copy.
Switching gears for a serious comment:
It occurs to me that it’s been 12 years since my book was published. There were 6,000 copies, total. Of which I just found 61 copies still available for sale on the Internet. Plus 84 copies in libraries, ranging from the Library of Congress to Singapore. I find this amazingly cool.
Users who want this book also want…….
WTF?
Now, now – it’s not free. It’s in exchange for another book. Unless you’re suggesting that “Romantic Lovers – The Intimate Marriage” is worthless?
No, the person who wants my book also wants the Romantic Lovers book. That’s what I thought was hysterical.
And yeah, it’s free. You get two free books for signing up, check the fine print. The deal is, you post 10 books of your own, and you’re supposed to ship them out to anyone who wants them, which gets you credits for more books. It’s kind of a cool idea, IMO.
