Plus an early message from nathan about the 'substantial' copywrite charges wasnt encouraging when you consider that they would be included in the unit price us customers pay anyway but kindle users dont seem to be paying over the odds as on kindle its about half the dead tree version or the version on apple books.

Daniel Francis Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 I realize a different regime but it seemed to me if I remember correctly they mentioning hefty costs for the NOAB. But went ahead anyway. -dan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Nathan Parker Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 The main issue is that upfront costs can be a bit steep, kind of like what we ran into with Baylor Handbooks. It helps if we have about 50+ people interested in a title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbryant Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 You could always do what LOGOS does. They put out many books as Pre-Publication to gather interest. Until enough people purchase it, they don't publish it. Granted, this may take several years to accomplish for some works, but at least that way they have persons who have not only expressed interest but who have put down money.

After the issues with prepaying for 14, i am not sure if the scars have healed or if the wounds are still too raw for that approach at the moment! 🤔 Edited July 26 by ukfraser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Nathan Parker Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 We are kicking around considering a pre-pub system in the future, but it would require some backend changes to the website. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
