I thought that you were doing bad if you sold less than 100 a month, and here you're saying that you'll be happy if you sell 50 overall! 0.0;;

I figure I could probably sell a LOT more than I do per month now if I could only find a way to get better know, but that seems to be an uphill battle under heavy fire these days. T_T
Steven, I'm surprised you're doing as well as you are. I've visited your website twice in recent weeks. I've followed your ebook links and got nowhere: one is broken, one leads to the sign in for goodreads (I don't have an account), and the other leads to the Smashwords home page (where you have no books). I've searched for you on Amazon, where there appears to be only one book -- a print copy of The Oort Perimeter. And I can buy print copies of your books from your website. It's a little hard to understand how you can be lamenting not being better known. I'd suggest offering a book for free. If there were one, I'd take it. Are the hundred sales per month print sales, or is there somewhere I can buy an ebook from you?
