I only have one out so far, but I'm working on getting more out and hopefully have more out later this year. <br />Ebooks have done wonders for writers and I just love it!

Great for you getting the advance.<br />Robin, you are so right. The best thing is that authors are getting a bigger chunk of the profit.<br />Pat, I'm not really making a living, just making it more comfortable.<br />Julie, glad to know you like your publisher.

E-books are changing the nature of publishing and how profits are made. Yes, I do remember when books went out of print. It could be difficult to find them.

I know that's where I messed up, although I never intended to have more than one anyway.<br />I received an advance for my last book, but otherwise it's straight royalties.Alex J.
