Marvel’s sales are down due to rising operational costs and digital initiatives. Since 2008, earnings were down 17.5% to $21.6 million and revenue was down $3.6% to $58.3 million. Still, Marvel has excellent margins at 37%-40% for the year 2008 but that is down from its 42% operating margin in 2007. Via Publishers Weekly.  Jane is a long time romance reader whose passion is, you guessed it, reading. Jane also does not like to talk about herself in the third person, but apparently this is the way that this biography thing works (although in a true biography, someone else would be writing this blurb). Anyway, currently Jane loves urban fantasy authors Patricia Briggs and Ilona Andrews. She's really excited about this year's crop of historicals including Joanna Bourne's The Spymaster's Lady and Sherry Thomas' Private Arrangements and the upcoming Loretta Chase Her Scandalous Ways.
She's looking for a good contemporary author. Email her with a recommendation!
