I have just submitted the paperback versions for all 7 Conqueror of the Sun main series books for Amazon's review process. As soon as that is completed, they will be available for purchase, which Amazon says may take up to 72 hours. This, of course, assumes Amazon doesn't ask for any corrections.

In any case, once the paperbacks are live, the price per book is at $12 USD. Which the price for paperback was much higher than I expected. However, according to Amazon's system, for the paperback versions, I will only be making an average of $1 USD royalty per book... I say average because the royalty changes according to the number of pages in each book.

Although I have stated before that the eBook versions will be $3.99 each, I feel I might change this is $4.99. The reason for this has nothing to do with wanting higher royalty to compensate for the paperback versions as I honestly don't care much about making money off my stories. Instead, I am considering this to make them slightly less "attractive" in regard to the price difference between paperback and eBook. This is because, ideally, I consider the paperback versions to be the superior versions of the storybooks.

This is also why the paperback versions will be available before the eBook versions. In addition to this, I want to get a feel for Amazon's review process before submitting the eBooks.
