I have outsold my advance!

Just a brief note to report the good news that I have outsold the advance against royalties that I was given for my book, The Rough Guide to Evolution and have just had an additional payment. I think only about half of Rough Guides do this at all and I was quietly hoping to do so within the first year of publication. But the fact that I have done so in the first six months is good news indeed (as is the fact that a French translation courtesy of Edition Tournon is in the offing!). 

Thanks to all of you who bought the book and/or recommended it!
