Harlequin Goes Where Many Have Gone Before

Here’s a link to a story at The Wall Street Journal describing publisher Harlequin Enterprises‘ intention to sell a novella that “will serve as a link” between a novelist’s debut book and the second, that goes on sale July 27.

It will be interesting to see if people will buy what is generally offered as a freemium out there on the web, but you have to expect that a publisher will try selling eBook samples if there’s a remote possibility that they can get away with it.

We’ll see if the eBook Revolution has evolved to allow for this kind of thing, or whether the reading public will see it as an attempt to charge $2.99 for a 15,000 word ‘linking’ novella.
