In order to look at the figures to decide whether indie or traditional publishing is the best option for our books we have to first find the figures – and it just got a little easier – see http://www.jakonrath.blogspot.co.uk or http://www.AuthorEarnings.com (this site had crashed this morning due to overload)…in ‘A Newbie’s Guide to Publishing: Me, Hugh Howey, and Legacy John’ some interesting figures (for some of us) come to light…not only is this article funny as all hell it is also the first time I’ve seen an open comparison of data on indie versus traditional publishing.
On the same topic, sort of, I contacted a literary festival co-ordinator here in North Queensland about our middle grade reader novels being published in April and the woman told me that if I wanted to be part of the festival I needed to contact my publisher, or better, get myself an agent…wonder if it would help if I sent her a link to Howey’s article?
