A lot of brainstorming, calculating, assessing the market in Europe and the UK and the fact that everything seems to be stagnating. Rather like the way TV has gone, European comics are just translating and republishing, translating and republishing ad nauseum.
I much prefer the creative side of things but now it's time to put on the steel helmet and knuckle down.
First change: no more cut-price books, graphic novels and albums. if you are one of those people (and there are a lot of you) who keeps saying "I must get that!" and "Oh -I am going to buy that!" then you have had books that cost less than the postage for long enough. The online store is going to get an overhaul and by the end of February all books will be priced at their true retail value.
What else? Well, I am not telling you my plans -you'll have to wait but tomorrow it's calculator and note book day.
Be prepared!
