Statistics for June/ uploads to partner sites

Apologies for not posting these yesterday; the Press took a day off to visit its mother and see 'Despicable Me 2'. (One of these activities was more enjoyable than the other!)

Our best-seller for June through the Press website was Adam's BETWEEN NOW AND THEN, but for the second month running the highest-selling title overall has been Jane's oustandingly popular ABOVE ALL.

We've uploaded our previous two titles - Morgan Cheshire's ALWAYS WITH US and Julie Bozza's highly-acclaimed THE APOTHECARY'S GARDEN - to our partner sites, Rainbow, All Romance, Kindle and Smashwords, and THE APOTHECARY'S GARDEN is also now available in a Print on Demand paperback edition.

For anyone still interested in monitoring our response times - which we record on a routine basis - the average for the three months to 1 July was 5 hours and 45 minutes.

Sharp-eyed readers may have noticed that the covers for our new books differ slightly in format from the ones we've been using up until now. Over the next few months we'll be introducing a new set of covers across the board (including to Smashwords, where we'll eventually replace the temporary ones). In most cases the difference will be extremely subtle - a new font, and a slightly different crop of the image - although unfortunately with both Julie's THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH and Chris FOOL'S ERRAND we've been unable to get hold of higher-resolution versions of the original picture and have had to do the best we can with the nearest equivalent. The plan at the moment is to have all these new covers rolled out everywhere on or before 1 November, however, so watch this space!
