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.

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!

For what it's worth, my figures are that ebooks are a little over twice the
sales of printed books. Mark has some valid points about DRM, but my thinking
is that I didn't do the book to make any money. If a bunch of Print users buy
the book, and a significant number of ebook users actually pay,
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 ? :-)

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

Congrats! And I also think an ebook version would have lots of upside for you

Hi,
For now, the book Programming LiveCode for the real Beginner is
unavailable. I'll take a day to decide what to do next.

Mark,
For those of us who ordered the book early on, is there some way of tracking
the shipment on our order? Do you know offhand how orders were shipped in the
US? UPS? FedEx? USPS?
Thanks

Hi,
Hi Mark,
Congratulations, on successfully selling out your copies of your book!
Now you just need to decide if you are going to do a second printing.
Or will the next version be an e-book instead?
Let us know!

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.

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.

Mark, do you understand that in this way ... you penalize ONLY the
honest users (/who would buy an eBook edition/) and, in fact, doing
nothing against piracy?
As soon as the book will be available, if it is really an interesting

Hi,
Thank you, everyone, for the nice on- and off-list wishes. I feel really
supported and am happy with the great, welcoming response.
I sent the book to the printing company three days ago and am now
waiting for delivery. We expect to have the books in the office between
10 and 14 May.
Hi Colin,
Let me think about this and contact you off-list. Rest assured that I
have mentioned your book in the last chapter of mine.

A ebook would be cool in addition to the paperback as a reference to easily
carry around.
However, for that type of books I prefer real books with the possibilty
to make easy notes, and the possibility to make an index (and frustrated
throwing around with a kindle isn't that fun either ).
Thanks
Mark-
Congratulations on the book. Looks good from the preview. And I can
imagine the frantic rush trying to get this out in time for the
conference.
