  1. Hey Dusky,
    I think I left a comment here this morning, but it seems to have vanished. (The computers in this castle are so unreliable.) I thought your readers should know that Richard Rohmer's How to Write a Bestseller is available from Amazon for $0.03 used and $2.432.64 new.

    1. At $2,432.64 you'll never make the Globe & Mail list. On the other hand, move 101 copies and you'll have achieved a quarter million in sales. It's a trade-off, really.

    2. Amazon lists the book at $3,988.35 on its Canadian site. Must be the 60¢ dollar.
