Gosh I can’t wait for e-books to finally mature in France. Heaven? no, a counter balance? perhaps. Authors would be maybe more valued. Why? Calling a big retailing center in France, asking them to reference my book on the shelves,

- Yes mister, it’s all good, still i have to inform you of the policy of our business : we review the sales in 4 months times, and we have a 40% off purchase policy when the items are sold.
Thanks… Some people do not understand what services of the supply chain and a shared and manageable working capital means, or the safety margin is pretty high, easy to understand given the number of books potentially hitting the shelves every week.
Between the rights of the publisher, and the one of the distributors, I would have to have a best seller to find a NPV of zero (NDLR: balance between investments and return with respect to time). Right now, would lose 15 % at the sale of any book, yes around 2 euros... Amazon sales make it a little better, still cannot find better than the local library, contacting directly the editor, hence minimizing the cash in between and right now, even offering me to stand in a forum to sign copies of the book. ok pretty small, but interesting new business model to think of. BM not ready now, will do.
