I’ve got no idea why, or for how long, but at the moment Amazon has offered a deep discount on my two Thrilling Tales of the Downright Unusual books.
You can get either Trapped in the Tower of the Brain Thieves or The Lair of the Clockwork Book for just $10.79; that’s a discount of 43% on the first, and 45% on the second, or, um, inevitably, 44% on the two of them together.
Each one’s about 130 full color pages, at some amount I am too weary to calculate per page. But, you know, a bargain. They’ve gotta be CRRRAAAAAZY to offer these deals!
Interesting update: under these discount prices, Trapped in the Tower of the Brain Thieves has sold slightly more copies than The Lair of the Clockwork Book.
So now Amazon has nudged the Brain Thieves price about 90 cents higher. It looks like an automated system is adjusting prices, analyzing sales data, and then experimenting to see how the books sell at different prices.
When will part two of the toaster tale begin?
Hi, Glenn –
An interactive story like The Riddle of the Wrong Brain doesn’t “start” because it’s not a serial; all the pages have to be there on the day it’s published. Which means I have to finish every illustration before you see the story.
I think I made it through around 30% of the illustrations last year – though I’d like to rework about six of them. And that leaves quite a few to go, while at the moment I have to concentrate on smaller projects that have a hope of bringing in some income in the short term.
I understand completely. Just wanted to say I’ve enjoyed part 1 very much and I am looking forward to part 2.
Regards,
Glenn
