After quite a while resting on my more or less laurels (past listings) it's time to get a move on and put up some more listings. My goal is five books every day from now on. This should be achievable, but not according to my past performance.
These books get listed in three places: on Amazon, Biblio, and Half. Books without ISBNs (older books) generally will not be listed on half. My prices might vary between these three places. Amazon and Half tell me competing prices, so I peg mine on them. Thus, if the lowest price for Deadly Percheron is $98 on Amazon, I might peg mine at $95. If it weren't my only copy maybe I'd be more reasonable. In fact, I think my Biblio listing is more reasonable.
Going forward (and possibly backward), links to titles of books will send you to the main Amazon listing. My listing will be somewhere amidst the other maybe 237 listings. This is where my photo of the book can be seen, which will probably be a better one than the one Amazon features. Half doesn't let me attach my own photo—at least I don't think it does. Photos are also at biblio. Lots of older listings still don't have photos. Nor updated prices.
I've been lousy at selling direct via email. Sorry about that, if you've tried me. Listing through the major portals keeps me honest—also prompt and reliable.

---Need to get orders ready to send to Leisure Books (distributed by HarperCollins but I am not sure I can combine all titles; besides I have plenty for a decent-enough size Leisure order, especially since they only shipped half of what was on my last invoice--reminding me of the sticky point here: having to re-construct the order for books not received then). Also ordering from Tartarus soon (books sold out that may still be available).
---Music played:
- Bill Evans THE PARIS CONCERT, Edition One (1979 jazz)
- compilation from Jan-Erik in Sweden (from Nov of last year)
