December 23 book sales - big month for Doctor Who


This month's biggest seller, can't imagine why. Doctors Who Colouring Book sells 32 copies (details below)

December's figures from Lulu (which covers sales via Amazon) don't come in till the middle of Jan, hence a belated round up for last year. But not an unpleasant one, with good looking sales both for my 'proper' books, and those pesky colouring books.

Sadly there are no live sales to declare for December, it not being that kind of month. Here are the rest...

Lulu (Amazon + direct) Dec sales - £109.94 (72 sales, figure is all royalties)

November - £107.53, October - £14.23, September - £18.76, Aug £33.34, July £27.60, June £29.94, May £48.33, April £52.26, March £8.56, Feb £38.57, Jan £35.25, & Dec £26.84

Sales are all UK, unless indicated:

Euro Best Of British - 9
60s Pop - 5 (US)
80s Pop - 4 
Socks Annual (direct) - 3

D2D/Ingram Dec sales - $19.69 (63 sales)

But how, you ask, can 64 sales turn into just twenty quid in takings? That's because something called a Smashwords promotion saw loads of digital versions of my books given away for free.

Print books sold nothing in December, so these figures are all digital. Some free, some paid a tiny bit.

Richard The Third - 20
Findlay Macbeth - 10
Midsummer Nights Dream - 9
Tales For Bible - 8
Prince Of Denmark St - 8
Book Of Esther - 8

Etsy Dec sales - £131.22 (17 sales, figure includes postage)

Eurovision Vol 2 - 3
1970s Pop - 2
80s Pop - 1
