Is Kobo any good? I'll promote it to Packt if you think it would be of interest? As for the other variations, I did buy the iBooks and Kindle ones myself too! About the next edition, I'm a bit behind, but the hope is to have it complete in July sometime, so that the September Kickstarter folk wi

So far I've got the Print, Kindle and iBooks versions. I'm trying to hold off until the next edition to get the Kobo version. Will I have the full set then ? :-) -- Alex. On 31/05/2013 23:44, Colin Holgate wrote: For what it's worth, my figures are that ebooks are a little over twice the sal

I think quite a few people bought both the paper and e versions. I did. Hope that helped - publishing both ways might help Mark too! On May 31, 2013, at 3:29 PM, Colin Holgate wrote: > Are you willing to say how many books you've sold? I don't know the numbers > for my book for 2013, but in th

Are you willing to say how many books you've sold? I don't know the numbers for my book for 2013, but in the first five months during 2012 (end of July to end of December) it sold over 800, which was surprisingly high. ___ use-livecode mailing list u

Hi Marian, No, there is no tracking service offered. I'd think that DHL delivers the book to you, but DHL might leave it to a local postal service. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter

Yes, congratulations, Mark! And I hope you will go ahead with a second printing, even though I bought one the first time around. It's always good to have at least one book for beginners available to help people get started. On May 29, 2013, at 2:30 PM, Rick Harrison wrote: > Hi Mark, > > Co
