Fantasy Book Sales Are Up

From Galley Cat comes good news for fantasy writers (including me) where Juno Books editor Paula Guran studied the Nielsen Bookscan numbers.

For last week, 49th of the year, fantasy mass market paperbacks sold 102,660 up from 62,761 units last year. Also, in mass market paperbacks, romance sold 310,689 units up from 202,667 for the week.
