The Ledger

Here we intend to keep a public record of all profits and expenditures, mainly for the sake of anyone considering to start a press of their own. Now watch the money roll in! (Refresh regularly for those breaking-news updates.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

!!! Breaking-New Update: As of December 16, 2007, 11:06 ET we abandon all attempts at bookkeeping hoping the reading (and buying) public now has a pretty good idea about the profitability of small press endeavors. Besides, books aren't meant to be kept, they are meant to be let, hence we aim to continue with our practice of bookletting. End of Breaking-News Update!!!
