So come up with a new business model, Harry. In another thread not a hundred miles from here I seem to remember prices ranging from $500-3000 for editing. At 80% of $2.99 a book, that's 200 to 1200 books sold before one gets around to paying the cover artist - another 200 books. That means you have to sell 400-1600 books before you start making money. I know we do it for love and not for money, but that's a heavy bite into the cake.
