Yesterday I read a blog where Harlequin author Ann Voss discussed numbers. I was blown away by how horrible they were. Why would anyone in their right mind want to write for this house, except for a stepping stone to something larger. Even then is it worth it?
I'll let you be the judge. Here is the link to the blog. http://jakonrath.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/harlequin-fail.html
I was shocked when I read it. I want to print it out for my mom because she thinks if you don't write for Harlequin, you're not a "real" writer yet! LOL!
ReplyDeleteOh no. This is soooo not what I wanted to hear. I've always wanted to sell a book to Harlequin just so I can see my story while I'm waiting in line at the supermarket. Maybe just one book there wouldn't hurt. But ack, the figures do not look good. Poor H authors...
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely shocked by those numbers. My epublishers are better to than me than I thought!!!
ReplyDeleteAmber... don't do it.
ReplyDeleteI was floored when I read that...It honestly sucks...
