@Emellaich,

You've raised some interesting issues, particularly in your second paragraph, which we've been discussing. One of our concerns would be moving to a specialist genre and back to a multi-genre later on, possibly finding ourselves almost at a pre-launch position in the market. But we like a lot of what you say and it's certainly going to have some impact on how we develop our brand.

@Mr Ploppy,

You're connected to some of the things we initially considered (and are still looking at) on pricing. We're aware that the writing community has been shackled to the 99c/free price tag by market forces but we're seeking a compromise that will encourage good writers while attracting readers to purchase. Nevertheless, we wouldn't rule out the option for allowing writers to showcase some of their work for free.

You've both given us some food for thought and some excellent pointers, which we'll be having a thorough look at.

Jay
