Book news

I've started receiving book stores' reports for their sales of Gwulo's books over Christmas, and I'm pleased to see they've sold over twice as many as last year. They say that all books have sold well this Christmas, probably because travel restrictions kept people in Hong Kong over the holidays.

I'm also happy to see that mail to the UK is working well again. Orders from the UK in January and February have arrived within one week - a big improvement over the 8+ weeks that deliveries were taking in December.
