Yes, I was quite impressed to see the announcement too, Night. I'm curious about the inside too; it certainly has an attractive cover. Yes, congratulations, Admin!

Its just the sonnets, there is an index to first lines at the back. Mostly its meant to be marketed to the readers of the Sonnet A Day newsletter.
I figured that rather than market someone else's book, I might as well publish and market my own.

:eek2: You're not claiming to be William Sakespeare now. I knew you were talented, but I didn't realize how much. :lol: :D :p

No, definitely not William Shakespeare. I was speaking from a publisher's standpoint, not an author's.

congrats Admin!
How many people are there on the Sonnet A Day mailing list? Are they only litnet members or other people as well?
When are you going to publish a book of our stories and make us famous?:D

*curious* Who are 1 & 2 I wonder? I hope you mean from the site and not in general.:confused:
Admin
04-05-2007, 09:18 AM
No, in general, the book hasn't sold much. I thought I'd atleast sell a few dozen copies by mentioned it in the sonnet a day newsletter, but no such luck.
Niamh
04-05-2007, 09:37 AM
Hum.... thats such a shame... i know a lot of people who like Shakespeare. I'll see if i can convince them to buy it. I also would have thought people here would have bought it too. I mean i have his sonnets twice already but that isnt stopping me.

Admin
