It was a book I felt passionate about when I was writing it, and it grew out of a combination of my own Welsh childhood, and my daughter's sometimes agonising searching for the meaning of her life (and yes, she's long since found it, through professional involvement with theatre, and working with a guy she loves - and having three amazing kids!)<br /><br />The pricing of ebooks remains a problem, and it would be interesting to share opinions on this one. Making books cheap can imply desperation - a 'look at me, I'm a published author' sort of thing. And 'price', to many people, tends to equal 'value'. On the other hand, there are those who think everything online should be available free. It's a difficult one.Enid Richemonthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17218197995089241666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2429560125838989988.post-83364306848058653662012-11-29T14:51:58.533+00:002012-11-29T14:51:58.533+00:00Pricing has been one of the hardest things to get ...Pricing has been one of the hardest things to get right and I'm still not convinced I have. The issue of low pricing equals low quality (in peoples minds) does have to be considered. However people don't seem willing to pay higher prices.

On the one hand, you feel it should reflect the sweat and toil that has gone into it, and hopefully the quality of the work itself - underpricing can equate to cheap and inferior. Yet at the same time, when it's a children's book, my personal urge is to keep it at under a quid to make it affordable. But then, if a child (or the parents) can afford a Kindle, maybe they can afford to pay more than a quid? Yes, difficult!<br />I've just finished reading My Mother's Daughter, incidentally, and enjoyed it hugely - it's been waiting patiently on my Kindle for ages until I had time to read it!madwippitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595748471651052552noreply@blogger.com
