tee ... translate it to french :D ya i'm lazy

lol... thankss y'all...
I guess I at least consider it a start. It's been published ages ago man, I just made no effort to get it on the market in Oman... but somehow I managed after school was over :p...

Lym: yikes... sure thing it's fiction all the way... :os... nothing exaggerated though :p... not that supernatural...

sweety: how I feel?... hmm... I feel I've just gone public :os... but I'm glad the book's out there anyway:)...

Bambi:... I didn't get you :XD:...

thanx to all for your support

Congrats dear. ;)

Congrats Tee..and I hope it's a huge success for you. This is only the first of many more books to come inshallah. :yes:

Well done TripleTee :)

Congratulations on your very first publish, lady. :)

Wonderful, congrats. Now how much is it sold for over here? And TTT any chance you would share with us the statistics of your sales :3mani:

nice 1 babes.... if i ever come across it idefinitely will buy it... those reviwes certainly do help sell it! alf mabrook :)

Finally!! Congrats, girl!
Go get 'em! :color:

loadza thanx to all :D...

DD: it's sold for 5 O.R. here...
sale statistics?... hmmm :XD:... 12.99 $ is around 5 riyals... the bookshop gets 20% of it... I've started with 32 books spread around, Markaz al-wadi *Al-Batra Bookshop*... Bustan Hotel, and alkhouth... I heard the one in shatti was moved so I'm not sure if it's there...

when I order them myself it's like 1 riyal for a book... I sell it here for 5, the shop gets 1 riyal and I get the 4...
I guess that covers it up... I'm new in this :os, but for now... I'm testing... that's why it's just 32 books now... if it goes well, the company will order more...

TripleTee, can you direct me into the steps of publishing a book. The stuff you need and all!

Am planning on a poetry collection.

TTT: How about your international Sales?

sorry for the late reply...

meticulousness: I've searched online for a publishing company till I found booksurge... but it's a self-publishing company which means you have to pay.
other companies may take in your script and publish it themselves if they liked it. It depends on what you're looking for. It's ofcourse more challenging to be accepted and published for free and one has to be aware of the system.
I chose booksurge cuz it had many online facilities and I could have my book made in any way I wanted. In return to paying of course.

DD: If it's sold online... my share's sent to my account... the share I have of what's published online is less... but the copies that're sold never run out of print in any case... I leave everything to them and simply receive my percentage. Different companies give you different percentages... ranging from 10 to 35 % in booksurge's case... I'm not sure about the others... but as soon's I had my book on amazon I was content :p

I have been waiting for it to be released here for ages and when it was released I was away. Now I have to wait for 2 weeks until it arrives.

Well done Thuraya!

*Edit* £8.44 is quite expensive, especially if Sidney Sheldon's best sellers are sold for around £4-6. */Edit*

Max Payne: I guess since best sellers are sold massively compared to new authors they're sold for lower prices...

I don't know what booksurge based the price on... woulda been interested...lol

well thanx payne... I hope the book'll be worth its price.

i hope too lol :p

masallah :D

thats really good... keep it up

How long did it take you to write? And how hard was it to get it published?
