I know what time of the year it is, and I don't need a calendar

January 4th, 2010 at 11:54 pm

OK, so what does that title mean? Well, since around May last year I have made a concerted effort to sell the deluge of books my ex left with me. Tons of books, many never read, or only a few pages (Now why did she buy them? I have my theories, but that'll have to wait for another time).

Anyway, since I have put a ton of books on Half.com, there have have been two times when I sold a lot of books in one day. First was the beginning of the college school year and.... now, which just by co-incedence is the beginning of the new semester at college. My book sales were only a few in December, and now that school has started up again, the books are selling.

Just sorta interesting, and something I wasn't expecting. Nice to get more of these out of here.

    people might make resolutions to read more too. I know I did that last year, and am doing it again this year. (though I just borrowed the books from the library).

    Whitestripe, that's true, but most of my mailings have been to college campuses, or close to a college. These haven't been Mass Market books, but more heavy literature type books. That said, I could see where you could be right too.
