Despite the cost of paper going up two years ago, I managed to keep my paperback prices the same. But now, I'm not having a choice. I received a notice from Ingram that several of my books will require price increases because the price of paper is rising dramatically.
It sucks. I don't want to do it, but I don't have a choice. Either I raise the prices, or I cannot offer paperbacks for sale. *sigh*
I get it. A lot of you prefer the tactility of having a book in your hand.
So, if you want a paperback, order it now before the prices go up. My formatter is currently updating the front matter (Angry Sheep Publishing transforming from a sole proprietorship to an LLC) and back matter (i.e. list of books I have available). So, I'll be uploading those as she sends them to me.
In other words, I'll be starting on the price changes next week. This is the first time I've needed to raise all prices since I started publishing in 2011.
If you've been planning to buy a paperback, I suggest ordering now from your favorite bookseller.
