2013: Fennel's Journal eBooks

It quickly became clear that demand for the journals would exceed the limited edition run of 600 copies per title. Many of the magazine editions sold out within the first year and I received requests from around the world for it to be made available locally (postage being high to Rest of World desitnations).

I decided to make the journals available as Kindle eBooks. This would overcome postage constraints and 'hold the fort' while I considered my options for print and logistics. The new format encouraged more people to read the Journal. Kindle eBooks outsold the magazines 7:1.
