Did you see Rusch's two articles about the problems with e-book accounting for traditional authors?

[aldersprig]

No, I did not, although I'm curious.

It's worth reading, particularly since you linked to Jim Hines's post which discusses his e-book sales: part one, here and a follow-up that got posted here.

Thank you!!

Did you catch Tobias Bucknell's e-stats? Complete with charts and graphs!

[aldersprig]

I had not! Thank you! :-)

[eseme]

Well darn, I missed!

I know I've seen that one. I thought I passed it along. Good stuff!

[aldersprig]

You might have; sometimes I get buried in links. :-)
