Tuesday, August 6

Feel so exhausted. And my head hurts. I felt slightly better in that I obviously look ill, too. Or I did. Pale, apparently. And like I might need to sit down. Oh well, I'll probably live. :-p

Oh, I feel better because it's me really being ill, not just being a wimp. Or something.

Today was extra busy at work. Today was the day when the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring came out on VHS and DVD...! Apparently we took over £10,000 in LOTR videos and DVD's. (Hmm, how many copies is that?!) People who'd preordered got a mug and a poster, and people just buying it got a poster and a £1 bounceback voucher (£1 off children's books when you spend £5). There was an offer on the Visual Companion, too. When you bought the film you got it for £2.99 instead of £14.99! Bargain. And although I didn't sell so many in the book department, it was still busy. Perhaps it's just because it's a new month and people have money. I don't know.

That must be about 670 copies of the film, £10,000. DVD's are £18.99 and videos are £12.99.

I'm estimating that figure, obviously. So it's probably flawed.

And I just wrote an e-mail to James Hickman. Maybe I'm just being overly optimistic because of that reply from Greg Bear, but hey. It's worth a try, right?

Hmmmm......!
