I
had intended to sell the prototype copy of Phoenix for $14 a copy.
Several fanzines wrote reviews and mentioned this price. It was shortly
before these reviews were published that I made the decision to actually
have the book printed and bound. This drove the retail price up to $19.99.
The final kicker was when EGM2 reviewed the book
with the $14 price. Since it wasn't fair in my mind that some people paid
$14 (postage free!) while others paid $19.99 + $2.50 postage, I decided
to include a bonus for all who bought the book at the $19.99 price. The
result was Phoenix: 1994 which supplements the original book. This
also was the basis for the 1994 chapter in the second edition although
the two are not exactly the same. Originally I had hopes to release a yearly
update to Phoenix but that idea didn't last too long. |
