This is the first Building Editera. Once a month I’ll write down what changed in the house we’re building for small publishers, and what we learned running Marmot Books on it.
Insert
What we added this month.
[This month’s addition in two or three sentences – filled in from the house’s reports before sending.]
Delete
What we removed or stopped – and why.
At Marmot we used to pay for [N] separate tools. This month we cancelled [two of them]. Their work now lives in the same record as the books.
Stet
What we kept, despite the temptation.
One price per house, not per seat. Most software charges per user. We won’t, because the whole point is that your second person gets in without a calculator.
Margin note
One question from a reader – answered.
A publisher asked how long it takes to move a house in. The plain answer: we don’t know yet for any house but ours. We’ll learn it with the first ten, together, and I’ll write the numbers here.
If something here is wrong for your house, reply. I read everything.Nikolay · Marmot Books · Editera
