Title: I got two payments for .com for September

Oh man, did that freak me out. The first payment was for six bucks. Wonder why they split it?

Look at your payments report and that one should show that it was for a prior time period or periods. I figure they did an audit of their systems and found some missed payments here or there so went and paid them out without saying anything about it.

Okay, thanks.

Edit - that was the payment for paperbooks.  I think that may have been a createspace one, I turned off createspace sometime this fall, too lazy to look up when.

Speaking of paperbacks, they dropped my month's paperback royalties by $.01 yesterday. It's a conspiracy! They hate me, I know they do!

Are paperback royalties now split out from ebook royalties? That would be super convenient if they were.

In the beta report, click on royalties estimator. It will show you the whole month's amount. In 'all formats' un-click everything but paperback.
