Paperbacks: £5.99 1 with £1.90 royalty
Smashwords: $2.99 4 copies giving $5.68
Amazon UK: 13 copies giving £6.07 (10 before and 3 after the price went from 71p to £2.14)
Amazon US: 4 copies giving $1.40
Which gives £7.97 + $7.08 Not a fortune, but the first month of what I hope will be many, and there are no reviews yet - I *hope* people will love the book enough to start reviewing it. And I am utterly delighted to announce asigned copy and the cover art sold for £50 for the authors For Japan auction
