They're £2.20 on Amazon UK, whereas a lot of writers I am already familiar with are £1.71. I know it's not much of a difference, but new writers are always a gamble. Reducing the price of one of them might bring in new people and become an advert for the others. (I'm assuming you have sample chapters of each book at the end of them?)

Or you could find other writers in the same genre and put out a free short story collection, then you would all be sharing each others' readers.
