by Henry E. Neufeld Recent conversations have reminded me that it’s about time to comment on the range of viewpoints published by Energion Publications. I’ve heard I have one of the most varied catalog of any individually owned company. I don’t know if this is true, but the catalog is varied, and getting more so….
Steve A. Wiggins, an author, writes a post titled, The Price is Wrong. I recommend that our authors read it, and it wouldn’t hurt for customers to do so as well, as it touches on some factors in pricing books.

With the announcement of My Life Story by Becky Lynn Black we pass a milestone of sorts for a publisher. We have used two blocks of 100 ISBNs each (978-1-893729-NNN-X and 978-1-938434-NNN-X). Those unacquainted with publishing these days may wonder how, with about 100 books in the catalog, we’ve used 200 ISBNs. The answer is…
