Mortality Bridge: Now More Hell Per Dollar!

Thanks in part to the influence of Cory Doctorow's reach on BoingBoing, and to the responsiveness of the good folks at e-Reads, the price of the trade paperback (large-format softcover, if you will) of Mortality Bridge is now $19.95.

As someone who winced whenever he saw the original $23.95 price, I can tell you that I am relieved and happy about this. Sure, I make less money per sale. But given this more reasonable price, I will probably sell more copies.

Would I rather sell more books for less money? You bet. If I had great business acumen, I doubt I'd have picked writing as a profession. The truth is, writers want to be read, sometimes unpragmatically so. Otherwise I'd just have one copy available and I'd price it at $100,000, and then wait and hope I score that sale. Sure, the odds aren't good -- but I just need one!

Fortunately for both of us, that ain't the case, and you can get the very handsome trade paperback here for the New! Low!
