My company has been publishing just one or two paperbacks per month. However, we'll probably drop back to publishing just a few each year because we are devoting most of our time and resources to growing our eBook line.
We'll probably publish five or six eBooks each month, maybe more if the quality is there. My editorial director gets 100 or so queries each month, and that number is growing. However, out of that 100 or so, only five or so will be considered for publication.
Regarding back-catalogue scanning: I'm happy to say that this problem doesn't apply to The Fiction Works, as we've always had electronic files to work with from the get-go.
