Caleb72, your post raises the ideal of a "catalogue" - and there is, I think, something in that (though I think 15 may be placing the bar a little high). As a reader I am very guilty of preferring to choose authors that have other books available. Given a choice between trying someone with only one or two books, and someone with a catalogue, I will almost always choose the catalogue - because there is a bigger potential pay-off if the new author turns out to be someone I like. I don't know how prevalent this attitude is.
