e-ARCs

Oh do make an exception!
I've resisted the temptation previously, but succembed for the Fledgling e-ARC. Oh, my, was it worth it!

I read the other two stories first and hesitated about Fledgling for a while, having read all of it online in draft. Then I gave in. For me, having read, and re-read, and re-read the draft actually added to the pleasure of the e-ARC. I found myself both caught up in the story all over again, and, in a corner of my mind, chortling as I noted the fixes.

Very clean ARC too. Only noticed two typos. Hand left hand was one, and compliment where it should have been complement was the other. Now I just have to wait for the final part in the Webscriptions proper.

Wondering if authors get more if I buy the Webscription month or the individual Webscription book?

Honestly? I don't know. The royalty statements show us totals sold, AFAIR, not how they were bought.

I think I have read somewhere on the Bar that individual book sales are counted toward that book only, but Webscription month sales are counted toward them all, using some weighted method (which is probably explained in the authors' contract). Thus it seems to me that individual books are always better for the author. (But it is entirely possible that I'm misremembering this.)
