Please make your catalogues easy to search.

Partial context: Lethe Press, http://www.lethepressbooks.com/, is having an anniversary sale--%1.50 each for almost all ebooks, mostly available in epub or mobi. A few might be in pdf.

They sort things into categories, but even though I thought I'd checked almost all categories, I kept turning up other things with a direct search.

(I'm most pleased about getting the 4 Astreiant ebooks, which I already have in paper copies)

Why can I not edit? Anyway, $1.50 not %1.50!

Thank you for the reminder - I meant to look at that, and completely forgot, what with all the other excitements going on in publishing this week.

Oh dear god, I see what you and James mean. Ah well, the sale is on until the end of the month; I'll poke through it when I have a functioning brain.

Thanks for the heads-up! But wow, what an incredibly badly designed website. A list of authors is essential! But even so, how can you design a website to showcase the books' covers and then cut off about, hmm, one in five, so the author's name doesn't appear? Mind-boggling. Not more mind-boggling, though, than a publisher, who produces and sells books, which people presumably read, appearing to be afraid to use words on their website...
