a couple of days ago, I bought a book that some of y'all might just be
interested in having a look at....  it's called {Writing & Marketing
Shareware} (2nd ed) and is written by Steven Hudgik.

very nicely laid out, and very smooth reading (meaning, you don't get bogged
down by this thing...you just cruise right on through the pages).

he includes statistics and quotes from a survey he did of shareware authors,
and information on just about everything you can imagine (including where to
get MORE information).

so far, after spending a few hours the night before last and lunch yesterday
reading, I'm about half way through reading the book, and am anxious to get
on to the rest....

DISCLAIMER:  I have no connection with the author, his publisher, the stores
selling the book, the owners of the stores selling the book, the relatives
of the owners of the stores selling the book, the owners of the stores next
to the stores selling the book, the...... ah, you get the idea.  :-)
I'm just a very happy customer who's glad he happened to walk by and see
this book on the shelf while he was looking for something else at the
bookstore.
