Birthday Blogging

Today’s my birthday.  So what did ya get me? 🙂

Today is also the last day to participate in the not-a-raffle for rape crisis centers.  So far, we’ve raised $1265!  My thanks to everyone who’s donated.  Tomorrow I’ll be drawing names and giving out an autographed ARC of Red Hood’s Revenge, as well as a copy of Heroes in Training.

Yesterday brought a royalties spreadsheet from my agent.  I’m happy to say that all three goblin books have earned out and are paying royalties, and Stepsister Scheme is very close to doing the same.  Given that there’s still a large reserve against returns for Stepsister, I’ve no doubt at all that it has basically earned out as well, and will be paying royalties the next time around.  To all of my readers, a huge thank you!

Here’s an interesting tidbit.  That spreadsheet included numbers on e-book sales as well as print.  E-book sales account for only 1-2% of all sales of my books.  (with the exception of Stepsister Scheme, where e-book sales rose to almost, but not quite 3%).  But hey, at least e-books don’t have any reserves against returns, which is nice!
