In the Topic: "Finally!!!, The Q+A answered"....on joequesada.com message board.
Here's a question a poster asked him...and his answer.
xdemon asks:
Realistically, how effective are online petitions (or even mail-in campaigns) to save a book? I personally don't see it as effective as encouraging people to go out and BUY the troubles book to increase sales. (And if they like it, keep buying it!) To me, online petitions draw sympathy, not sales. What are you thoughts and insights on how to help a struggling book?
Sometimes they can make us stay off execution, most times they are transparent and you realize it’s just a few people, NEVER have I seen one increase sales on a book.
Just wanted to share that.
