+Title: More sales number for my Free Culture paper editions (2019-edition)
+Tags: english, docbook, freeculture
+Date: 2019-06-11 16:05

+<p>The first book I published,
+<a href="http://www.free-culture.cc/">Free Culture by Lawrence
+Lessig</a>, is still selling a few copies.  Not a lot, but enough to
+have contributed slightly over $500 to the <a
+href="https://creativecommons.org/">Creative Commons Corporation</a>
+so far.  All the profit is sent there. Most books are still sold via
+Amazon (83), with Ingram second (49) and Lulu (12) and Machette (7) as
+minor channels.  Bying directly from Lulu bring the largest cut to
+Creative Commons.  The English Edition sold 80 copies so far, the
+French 59 copies, and Norwegian only 8 copies.  Nothing impressive,
+but nice to see the work we put down is still being appreciated.  The
+ebook edition is available for free from
+<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig">Github</a>.</p>

+<p>It is fun to see the French edition being more popular than the
+English one.</p>
+
+<p>If you would like to translate and publish the book in your native
+language, I would be happy to help make it happen.  Please get in
+touch.</p>
