I've done a lot of research and decided, for a time at least, to price us at a reasonable $0.99. Most new authors (the self-published ones who get anywhere in sales, that is) begin this way so that more people are willing to take a chance on them. I've sold ONE book at the higher price...and that was to a friend  Something else any and everyone on these boards can do for us: go to the book's site and double click the "t" key. This brings up the "tag" window. Tagging works thusly: Quote: Find other items with similar qualities: Are you a photography enthusiast? Find a photography book that you love and tag it with the category "photography book." Click on the "photography book" tag you created and see other items that were tagged similarly. Because people's tags are (by default) visible to others, a great effect of tagging is that you can navigate among items through other people's tags. Add a tag and check out what other items people have tagged as "robot" or "gardening" or "chocolate." Also, you can assign as many tags as you wish to each product, so tag away! So tag it as something simple (or as several something simples, heh), such as "fantasy anthology" or "great fantasy" (which is what I did to test it out, lol), or just "short stories." ETC Things you think that if people were searching for it, they'd be happy to find it  This would be a great help!

Re: tags. I've also discovered that you can just do a check mark beside an already-existing tag. You don't even have to type anything! Talk about easy  EDIT: OMG, even easier! Just double tap the "t" key whilst on the anthology Amazon page, copy and paste all the top tags there. Trust me, it's simple. I just did 10+ pages on the Kindle Boards so others would do the anthology's in return for us. (OH GOD MY EYES ARE BLEEDING)I'm learning more about these things. The higher number of people tagging a subject, the quicker the book comes up on a list when someone's searching. Say you put "fantasy" as a tag for your book. If 150 people put that tag in, and another book has 151 people putting that "fantasy" tag on, the second book would come before yours when random people do a search for "fantasy." Does that make sense?

Not even close as far as royalties go, Raya. I just wanted you guys to know the numbers.
E-book went for $0.99 for a long time. I experimented with raising it to $2.99 a month or two and sold nothing. It's at $1.99 now & I'm keeping an eye on it (3 at that price so far).
