Enough Already!

Leave the old books where they belong. Goodwill!

So why do authors go back and re-publish their beginning works after they have become popular? Didn't they make enough on the bestseller to live on that for awhile? Come on! If the beginning work was crummy then, it's crummy now.

My #1 example is Janet Evanovich. So we all love her Stephanie Plum series. We can even get a good laugh out of the "Full" series, but get real. Let those old ones stay on the shelves in the dusty bookstores. You know which ones I mean, Ms. Evanovich. You know, the ones you cranked out for Loveswepts. I realize they only sold for $1.95, but aren't you doing well now?

Readers...check the copyright and publish date.
