			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/galleycat" target="_blank"><span class="dropcap">G</span>alleycat is the publishing industry news blog over at Mediabistro.com</a>, which is one of the single most valuable resources for writers and people in the creative industry I have ever encountered.  A membership in the AvantGuild costs, like, $80 for two years, but it gets you exclusive interviews with agents, editors, and various other industry gurus, as well as access to content regarding both jobs and freelance opportunities.  I&#8217;ve been a member for a while.</p>
<p>Anyway, <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/galleycat/web_tech/exclusive_interview_publishing_on_mobile_phones_97253.asp" target="_blank">Galleycat ran an microinterview/blurb about me this morning.</a>  I&#8217;d been following their recent coverage of iPhone e-book readers, including Stanza and Feedbooks, and dropped a note to point them the way of <a href="http://www.lulu.com/content/694374" target="_blank">my collection</a>.  I thought it was a rather nice post.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s also worth pointing out that when I note &#8220;sales ain&#8217;t much,&#8221; I generally define &#8220;much&#8221; as go-jillions of copies.  I&#8217;d be so bold as to call the actual sales robust, with an additional exciting to further downloads.  To wit: so far, <i>Entrekin</i> has raised nearly $700 earmarked for the United Way NYC, which works out to a little bit more than a dollar for every book sold.  In about a year and a half, I&#8217;m up to nearly fifteen hundred downloads overall, with a little more than a third of those accounted for by the collection itself and new downloads trickling in every day.</p>
<p>Which is, largely, why I called the sales &#8220;ain&#8217;t much.&#8221;  Then again, I&#8217;ve made about as much so far as I probably would have had I tried to sell the stories to various magazines, journals, and ezines; readers seem to like it; and as I note in that interview, I&#8217;m proud of the experiment that is the final product.</p>
<p>One fun thing about it all?</p>
<p>Technically, I think <i>Entrekin</i> may be the bestselling e-book on the iPhone.</p>
