Happy new year! Oh wait, it’s February already…
The book is, as promised, still on sale and, as of today, has sold 153 copies – a royalty cheque of just over €700 will be making its way to Focus Ireland later this month.
Sales were helped along in the quiet month of January by a couple of lovely features in PC Live and Nós magazine.
If you haven’t picked up a copy already, please do – €4.61 per copy sold will go to Focus Ireland. The book will stay on sale for some time yet!
As of this afternoon, 104 copies of the book have been sold. That’s a whopping €479 for Focus in less than five days. Hurrah!
My WordPress dashboard tells me that there are scads of posts linking to this site, which has helped hugely – thanks a million to everyone for all the plugs so far. A wee mention in yesterday’s Metro was lovely to see, too.
One quick note on shipping – Lulu have extended their Christmas shipping deadlines, and there’s still one day left for guaranteed delivery to Ireland via standard shipping (more details here). It’s approximately €12 and I’m told this covers up to three books.
A few people have been asking about the book cover. It was designed by the lovely Katharina Pommerien, whose portfolio is here.
I’d highly recommend Katharina for her creativity, efficiency and all-round good nature. The original brief was somewhat, um, vague, and she managed to transform it into something beautiful. Thanks Katharina!
