Looks like I have made a mistake. (Another one? you say. Indeed, says I.)

I have been working on an ePub of The Complete Norwegian Folktales and Legends of Asbjørnsen & Moe, under the impression that a single file with all 150 texts and >300 illustrations would land at more than half a gigabyte. After all, the #Vellum file has grown that big.

But no.

After compiling the work, the #ePub turns out at around 65MB, which is manageable on modern systems.

It's still too big to sell on #Amazon, because their download fees, which they take out of royalties, would make it necessary for me to bump the price up by about $10, which is just stupid.

So, here's the new strategy:

Amazon: the whole collection split into 15 volumes at necessarily inflated prices. (Customers may like giving Bozo their money; he's not stealing from me.)

Ko-fi: the whole collection in a single 65MB ePub (no-DRM) that can be stored wherever you store stuff, and sideloaded on to any ereader or app, at a price that is less than a quarter of what the full 15 volumes costs on Amazon.

More information will be forthcoming.

“Her black hair lay over him, and she was as soft and as warm to stroke as the ptarmigan when it is afraid and its heart races.”

– Jonas Lie. “Jo from the Seaholms,” 1890.

An unusual similie, but it appears to work (especially if the reader has ever handled a living game bird).
