Books in a Virtual World

Today I decided to make an experiment : selling books in Second Life. Some people already did, but I couldn’t find anything looking successful enough, so I tried to imagine something different. I picked two high traffic malls with relevant themes : one in a rock club, the other in a dark fantasy roleplay area.

Now is the most difficult part of any experience like this one : wait and see 🙂

shop at Sanctuary Rock b

 

shop at Crossroads

 

Update 5/8 : I added a thrid shop, at the Gor Hub, a place dedicated to roleplay around John Norman’s work, and which is quite popular. I hope Fantasy fans who play there will also like my stories.

Final update : it was fun, but didn’t bring me any sales… Experiment discontinued.
